The terms "CP" and "CRP" in the context of divorce cases refer to specific legal procedures in the court system. Here's the difference between them:

1. CP (Civil Petition): CP stands for Civil Petition. In divorce cases, a CP typically refers to the initial filing of a divorce petition by one of the parties involved. It's the legal document that initiates the divorce proceedings. In a CP, the petitioner outlines the reasons for seeking a divorce and the relief they are seeking from the court, such as the dissolution of the marriage and related issues like child custody, alimony, and property division.
2. CRP (Civil Revision Petition): CRP stands for Civil Revision Petition. A CRP is not directly related to the divorce itself but may come into play during the course of divorce proceedings. It is a legal mechanism used to challenge or revise decisions made by lower courts. If one of the parties is dissatisfied with a ruling or order issued by a lower court in a divorce case, they can file a CRP in a higher court to seek a review of that decision.

In summary, CP initiates the divorce process, while CRP is a legal recourse to challenge decisions made during divorce proceedings. Both are legal procedures used in divorce cases, but they serve different purposes within the legal system.
