The Transfer Civil Miscellaneous Petition is filed to withdraw the

case in I.D.O.P.No.86 of 2022 on the file of the Family Court, Madurai

and transfer the same to the file of the Family Court, Srivilliputhur and to

try along with the case in I.D.O.P.No.14 of 2022 on the file of the Family

Court, Srivilliputhur.

2. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner/wife would

submit that the marriage between the petitioner and the respondent took

place on 31.08.2017 and out of their wedlock, they were blessed with one

male child, namely, Dhanasis Michael. Due to some misunderstanding

between them, the respondent has filed a petition in I.D.O.P.No.86 of

2022 before the Family Court, Madurai, for divorce. Pursuant to which,

the petitioner/wife has filed a petition in I.D.O.P.No.14 of 2022 before

the Family Court, Srivilliputhur, for restitution of conjugal rights.

Now, the petitioner/wife is residing in her parental home at Srivilliputhur.

He would further submit that since the I.D.O.P is before the Family

Court, her presence for every hearing is essential for which she has to

travel nearly 80 kms leaving behind her minor child or taking her along

with her, which would cause extreme hardship to the petitioner. Further,

to avoid conflicting judgments also, both the case has to be tried by the

same Court. Hence, he prays to allow this petition.

3. The learned counsel for the respondent has no objection to

transfer, as sought for by the petitioner in the present transfer civil

miscellaneous petition. However, he seeks to have the presence of the

respondent before the trial Court dispensed with, since the matter is

transferred to the Family Court, Srivilliputhur, where the presence of the

parties for every herein is mandatory.

4. Recording the submission made by the learned counsel for the

respondent, this Transfer Civil Miscellaneous Petition is allowed and the

petition in I.D.O.P.No.86 of 2022 pending on the file of the Family

Court, Madurai is ordered to be withdrawn and transferred to the file of

the Family Court, Srivilliputhur to be tried along with I.D.O.P.No.14 of

2022. The learned Judge, Family Court, Madurai, is directed to transmit

transferee Court, within a week from the date of receipt of a copy of this

order, if the same is not yet disposed of. The personal appearance of the

Srivilliputhur. The respondent shall appear before the Court as and when
