SANJAY KISHAN KAUL, J.

1. The scope and ambit of Section 19 of The Family Courts Act, 1984 (hereinafter referred to as the =said Act‘) has to be examined by us in the present appeal.

2. The said Act was enacted with a view to promote conciliation and secure speedy settlement of disputes relating to marriage and family affairs and to deal with matters connected therewith so as to have a composite statute to deal with various aspects. Though the statute was enacted much earlier, its implementation has been done in a phased manner as the pre-requisite was the establishment of the Family Courts under Section 3 of the said Act. For example, in most districts of Delhi such Family Courts now stand established but still not in all. Chapter 5 of the said Act deals with Appeals & Revisions and Section 19 of the said Act is the only Section falling under this chapter which reads as under:

?CHAPTER V - APPEALS AND REVISIONS 19. Appeal. -(1) Save as provided in sub-section (2) and notwithstanding anything contained in the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908(5 of 1908), or in the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 (2 of 1974), or in any other law, an appeal shall lie from every judgment or order
