TR.P(C) NO. 280 OF 2021

ORDER
Dated this the 24th day of June 2021
The martial discord between the petitioner wife and
the respondent husband has resulted in the petitioner
filing O.P.Nos.818/2019, 764/2019 and M.C.No. 6/2019
before the Family Court, Muvattupuzha. In turn, the
respondent has filed O.P.No.206/2020 before the Family
Court, Ernakulam.
2. The prayer in this petition is for transfer of
O.P.No.818/2019 filed by the petitioner from the Family
Court, Muvattupuzha to the Family Court, Ernakulam,
where the petition for restitution of conjugal rights is
pending.
3. I have heard Sri. K V Sabu, learned Counsel for
the petitioner and Sri. Savie Varghese, learned Counsel
for the respondent. Learned Counsel for the petitioner
submitted that all cases, other than O.P.No.818/2019 has
already been transferred to the Family Court, Ernakulam
and that, O.P.No.818/2019 having been filed by the
petitioner seeking divorce and O.P.No.206/2020 by the TR.P(C) NO. 280 OF 2021
respondent seeking restitution of conjugal rights, it is
highly essential to have joint trial of the case. No serious
objection is raised by the learned Counsel for the
respondent against transferring the case from Family
Court, Muvattupuzha to Family Court, Ernakulam.
I am convinced with the reasons stated in the
transfer petition and accordingly, the transfer petition is
allowed, O.P.No.818/2019 pending on the files of the
Family Court, Muvattupuzha shall stand transferred to
Family Court, Ernakulam forthwith.
