Holding

No further order is required; the petition is disposed.

Summary

Gulabi Devi filed a writ petition challenging the order of the Sub Divisional Magistrate, Deoria Sadar, who had decided a maintenance case under the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007. The High Court examined the compliance with its earlier direction dated 17‑09‑2026 and noted that the magistrate had issued an order on 25‑09‑2026 under Sections 4 and 5 of the Act. The Court found no further intervention necessary and recorded the matter as concluded. It also indicated that any aggrieved party could challenge the magistrate’s order through appropriate proceedings. Consequently, the petition was closed without any additional order.
