Arbitrary and irrelevant list of witnesses

Legal Fighter (Querist) 23 March 2010 This query is : Resolved
In my case u/s 9 HMA, the wife has submitted arbitrary list of witnesses which include my senior officers in office, all relatives, bank accounts etc. which are not relevant at all and are totally abuse of process of law.

The judge has ordered to summon all the persons in the list without any application of mind.

What is remedy to me as I don't want my senior officers to come in court. Is there any legal provision to challenge this order?

You must keep in mind that when a person has been mentioned in the list of witnesses by a party and not examined, the courts may draw adverse inference for his non-examination.

Similarly, a witness summoned by one party to lis may depose against the party summoning him and that again will go against such party.

You need not fear and convince your senior officers to tell the truth before the court.

You cannot ask the other party not to summon any person as witness.
