in the United States. They were called domestic
relations courts. The Family Courts Act in India,
was enacted on 14 September 1984 with a view

to marriage and family affairs. Family Courts can
be established for every area of the state
consisting of a city or town whose population
exceeds ten lakhs. They are subordinate to the
High Court, which has power to transfer the case
from one family court to the other. Â
