But the change of name of the child post-decree cannot be considered a clerical mistake arising out of accidental slip or omission.

Only if the court feels that the mother is unfit to take care of the child, the custody will go to the father or another person. The court will consider the child's attachment to each parent and the potential impact of separation and also ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,
The custody order passed by the Magistrate under Sec.21 of the D V Act is interim and temporary. Such an order of temporary custody is passed during the pendency of a DV case. A magistrate cannot pass an order granting permanent custody of the child to the aggrieved person in a DV case. So, for an application claiming a change of school for the child which is of a permanent nature, the DV Court is not empowered to allow such a claim of the applicant during the pendency of the DV Cas ...ReadMore
