On Maharashtra State Commission for Women website, under the below link the reasons for creation of Family court is given.
http://mahilaayog.maharashtra.gov.in/new/spl_court.php
The reason, that is given is "Family Courts were established for Women". So should men expect justice from such a court ?
The page further states that "Advocates are normally not allowed in the Family Court. However, they are permitted in special circumstances." Nothing can be farther from truth. Family court is full of lawyers. In fact, people (whose cases are going on) are told to wait outside the court room, and only lawyers are allowed to move freely.
Reality is that family courts are created to harass (mostly innocent) husbands, and to extort their hard earned money. Such is the secrecy in family courts, that they don't even publish their judgements on internet. Since transparency brings down corruption. Judiciary always hates transparency.
