Habeas Corpus in Child Custody | Welfare of Child Overrides Foreign Court Orders When Enforcement Is Impractical : Bombay HC
Bombay High Court dismisses a habeas corpus petition in a cross-border custody dispute, ruling that the child's welfare and practical circumstances take precedence over foreign court orders when compliance is impossible. The judgment reaffirms the presumption of lawful custody with the biological parent and underscores the limitations of enforcing jurisdictional orders in international family law disputes.
