DOMESTIC VOILENCE

@ Author

 

1. A DV Act case is filed before a Magistrate Court as direct complaint in the absence of DIR. However if a DIR is made then it is the duty of PO to submit the same before Jurisdiction Magistrate court. In many district courts they are also called as Mahila courts which is precided by a Magistrate.

 

2. Family Courts constituted under FCA, 1984 have no power to entertain a DV Act case.
