Tr.C.M.P.No.524 of 2024 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT MADRAS DATED: 24.01.2025 CORAM : THE HONOURABLE MR.JUSTICE V. LAKSHMINARAYANAN Tr.C.M.P.No.524 of 2024 & C.M.P.No.11854 of 2024 Ivangelin Princy .. Petitioner Vs David Godson Immanuel .. Respondent Prayer: Transfer Civil Miscellaneous Petition is filed under Section 24 of the C.P.C., to withdraw the case in O.P.No.200 of 2023 pending on the file of the learned Family Court, Krishnagiri and transfer the same to the file of the learned District Court, Tirupattur. For Petitioner : Mr.R.Rajarajan For Respondent : Mr.M.Suresh O R D E R This transfer petition is at the instance of the wife. She seeks withdrawal of O.P.No.200 of 2023 from the file of the learned Family Court, Krishnagiri and transfer the same to the file of the learned District Court, Tirupattur. 2. I heard both sides. I have gone through the affidavit. 1/4 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis Tr.C.M.P.No.524 of 2024 3. The petitioner married the respondent on 26.06.2017. From the wedlock, they were blessed with two children aged 5 and 4 years. Due to disputes and differences, the parties have separated. The respondent/husband initiated proceedings in O.P.No.223 of 2022 for restitution of conjugal rights before the learned Family Court, Krishnagiri, which was later withdrawn by him. Subsequently, he has initiated O.P.No.200 of 2023 on the file of the learned Family Court, Krishnagiri seeking divorce. Pleading that the wife is working as Teacher in a Government School and residing in Tirupattur, she has moved this transfer petition. 4. This Court and the Supreme Court have consistently held in matters of transfer, the convenience of the wife should be given a superior consideration than that of the husband. As the distance between Krishnagiri and Tirupattur is considerable and since it will be difficult for the wife to leave the children behind and travel to attend the Court, I am inclined to accept the transfer. 5.Accordingly, O.P.No.200 of 2023 is withdrawn from the file of the learned Family Court, Krishnagiri and transferred to the file of the learned District Court, Tirupattur. 2/4 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis Tr.C.M.P.No.524 of 2024 6.With the above observations, the Transfer Petition is ordered.
