It is seen that the respondent/husband initiated HMOP proceedings in HMOP.No.4111 of 2024 before the II Additional Family Court at Chennai, in view of the fact that the marriage between the petitioner and the respondent was celebrated within the jurisdiction of this Court. However, it is seen from the cause title of the HMOP proceedings that, both the petitioner and the respondent reside within the jurisdiction of Gingee, Villupuram District. 3. Therefore, the petitioner/wife now seeks transfer of the said HMOP proceedings to the file of the Sub Court, Gingee, Villupuram District, in view of the fact that as both the parties reside within the jurisdiction of Gingee Court, no prejudice would be caused to the respondent/husband as well. 4.
