                                                         ORDER

The present Transfer Civil Miscellaneous Petition is filed to withdraw the

case in H.M.O.P.No.6 of 2021 from the file of Principal Sub Court, Pudukkottai

and to transfer the same to the file of Family Court, Sivagangai.

2.The respondent/husband has filed H.M.O.P.No.6 of 2021 before Principal

Sub Court, Pudukkottai, for divorce. The petitioner/wife has filed H.M.O.P.No.

100 of 2021 before the Family Court, Sivagangai, for restitution of conjugal

rights.

3.The learned counsel for the petitioner/wife submitted that the petitioner is

having 2 years old child and she has no source of income and she is depending on

her parents for day today necessities and no one available to accompany with her

to travel for attending the Court hearings and it may not be difficult for the

respondent to conduct case at Sivangangai as the petitioner's application for

restitution of conjugal rights is pending. The distance between Sivagangai and

Pudukkottai is nearly 80 kms. In such situation, it is difficult for the petitioner to

attend every hearing in H.M.O.P.No.6 of 2021 at Pudukkottai. Therefore, he

seeks to transfer the case to Sivagangai.

4.The learned counsel for the respondent/husband would submit that the

petitioner is residing in Kallupatti Village at Sivangangai District and if the case

may be transferred to Devakottai, it would be convenient for both parties.

5.Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and considering the

submission made by both counsel and to avoid conflicting judgments,

H.M.O.P.No.6 of 2021 is withdrawn from the Principal Sub Court, Pudukkottai

and transferred to the file of Family Court, Sivagangai, for disposal as per law.

The learned Subordinate Judge, Pudukkottai, is directed to transmit the papers to

the file of the Family Court, Sivagangai, forthwith. The learned Judge, Family

Court, Sivagangai, is directed to club H.M.O.P.No.6 of 2021 along with

H.M.O.P.No.100 of 2021 together and dispose of the same on merits and in

accordance with law as expeditiously as possible.

6.The personal appearance of both parties before the Family Court,
