2.The learned Counsel for the petitioner submits
that the marriage between the petitioner and the
respondent was solemnized on 30.11.2017 at Trichy and
out of the wedlock, they are having a child.
However, due to differences of opinion, they are living
separately and the minor child is with the petitioner.
The petitioner has filed a petition in OS.No.81 of 2022
for restitution of conjugal rights before the Family
Court at Trichy and the respondent husband has filed a
petition in GWOP.No.145 of 2022 seeking for the custody
of the child before the Family Court, Trichy.
According to the petitioner, pending the above cases,
the petitioner has been transferred from Trichy to
Tiruppur and therefore, it is difficult for her to
attend the Court at Trichy with the minor child, whose
studies are also affected. Therefore, the learned
Counsel prayed that these petitions be allowed.
3.The learned Counsel for the respondent opposes
these petitions.

4.The Hon'ble Apex Court in the case of
Amitha Shah vs- Virendar Lal Shah, reported

account while deciding the petition for transfer and in
the case of Rajani Kishor Paradeshi Vs Kishor Babulal
Paradeshi reported in (2005) 12 SCC 237, the Hon'ble
Apex Court has held that in such type of transfer
petitions, the convenience of the wife is to be
preferred over the convenience of the husband.
5.This Court being satisfied with the reasons
stated in the affidavit filed in support of this
petition and also taking into consideration that the
convenience of wife is to be taken into consideration
at the time of considering transfer petitions as held
by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the judgments cited
supra, is inclined to allow the present petitions.
