    Case 350/2023 Summary: In this interlocutory application, the Principal District Judge of Tiruvallur allowed petitioner Antony Nivetha's petition to issue summons to the Pastor of Saviour Jesus Christ Church to verify the authenticity of a marriage certificate copy. The petitioner sought divorce from respondent Vijay Silva on grounds of cruelty, but the original church marriage register was destroyed in floods. The court permitted the certified copy to be used as secondary evidence under Section 60(c) of the Indian Evidence Act, since the original document loss was beyond the petitioner's control. Summons were ordered issued to the church pastor with three days notice (batta). This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
