Dear Experts,
8 months back, I filed Child Custody O.P along with interim custody I.A as party in person. Both the applications are in the same format i.e Petition carried the facts and prayer while the affidavit states that facts mentioned in the petition are true to best of my knowledge etc,. The O.P was allowed, numbered, and the case is proceeding. But the IA is not even numbered even after 8 months nor was it unallowed. Now i hired an advocate and he enquired about I.A with the bench clerk who responded that I.A was not in proper format and hence held back. I really wonder how come the O.P is numbered while the I.A is held back when both of them are in the same format??? Is the format in which i filed correct or not ? Is there any specific format ?? Do O.P and I.A carry different format???? Kindly enlighten me on this issue. Thanks in advance for your time and energies and sharing your knowledge and guiding me in my case.
