C.Kalaivani v. V.Kaviraj Velayutham

ORDER Heard.

¶2This Transfer Civil Miscellaneous Petition is filed under Section 24 of the Code of Civil Procedure seeking withdrawal of H.M.O.P. No.3102 of 2025 pending on the file of the V Additional Family Court, Chennai, and transfer of the same to the file of the Sub Court, Ambattur, for disposal in accordance with law.

¶3The petitioner is the wife. The respondent/husband has instituted H.M.O.P. No.3102 of 2025 seeking dissolution of marriage by a decree of divorce (under the Hindu Marriage Act).

4.The petitioner-wife is residing at Ambattur and is taking care of a minor child aged about 8 years. It is also recorded that the matrimonial OP is at the pre-trial stage. The petitioner stated that she is sole caregiver for the minor child and frequent travel would disrupt the child's schooling and routine.

5.The petitioner has also pleaded medical difficulty. The affidavit states that she had undergone treatment/surgery for scar endometriosis and that Page3 of 5 frequent travel would aggravate pain, apart from other ailments. The petitioner would therefore submit that she is unable to travel frequently and attend proceedings at Chennai.

6.Considering the above circumstances, particularly the petitioner's residence, the responsibility of caring for a school-going minor child, the medical constraints pleaded and having regard to the stage of the proceedings, this Court is satisfied that the transfer sought deserves to be ordered.

¶7In the result, Tr.C.M.P. No.1219 of 2025 is allowed. H.M.O.P. No.3102 of 2025 pending on the file of the V Additional Family Court, Chennai is withdrawn and transferred to the file of the Sub Court, Ambattur, for disposal in accordance with law.
