JMIC while trying RCR under section 9 has got no power to entertain any application moved under section 27 of HMA.

"27. Disposal of property.- In any proceeding under this Act, the court may make such provisions in the decree as it deems just and proper with respect to any property presented, at or about the time of marriage, which may belong jointly to both the husband and the wife"

Judge has the power to entertain.
