THIS TRANSFER PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 30.11.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:

ORDER

Dated this the 30th day of November, 2021

The spouses are at loggerheads and have resorted to legal remedies. The first petitioner/wife has filed a maintenance case before the Gramanyayalaya, Ambalappuzha and original petitions for return of gold ornaments and money, as well as return of car and motor bike before the Family Court, Alappuzha. The respondent/husband has filed O.P.No.1000 of 2021 before the Family Court, Kollam, seeking return of gold ornaments.

2. The first petitioner, who is a permanent resident of Vandanam in Alappuzha seeks transfer of the original petition filed by the husband, from the Family Court, Kollam to the Family Court, Alappuzha.

3. Learned Counsel for the petitioners submitted that transfer is necessary, to avoid divergent decisions. Further, the wife being a permanent resident of Alappuzha will be put to extreme inconvenience if she is forced to contest the case at Kollam.

4. Learned Counsel for the respondent raised

objection by contending that the Family Court at Kollam has got jurisdiction to entertain the original petition filed by the husband and the case need not be transferred to suit the convenience of parties.

5. Having heard the Counsel on either side

and being guided by the decisions of the Hon’ble Supreme Court in Sumita Singh v Kumar Sanjay and another [(2001) 10 SCC 41], Rajani Kishor Pardeshi v Kishor Babulal Pardeshi [ (2005) 12 SCC 237], holding that in transfer petitions arising out of matrimonial disputes, preference should be given to the convenience of the wife over that of the husband, I am inclined to allow the prayer for transfer. In the result, the transfer petition is allowed.

O.P.No.1000 of 2021 on the files of Family Court, Kollam shall forthwith be transferred to the Family Court, Alappuzha. Sd/- V.G.ARUN JUDGE
