CORAM

THE HONOURABLE THIRU JUSTICE D.HARIPARANTHAMAN Tr.C.M.P.No.654 of 2015 & M.P.No.1 of 2015 T.M.Sampath ... Petitioner Vs.

K.K.S.Jayaraman ... Respondent Tr.C.M.P. filed under section 24 of C.P.C., to withdraw and transfer the suit in O.S.No.28 of 2013 pending in the Principal District Court, Chengalpattu to the District and Sessions Court, Kancheepuram or any other forum.

For Petitioner : Mr.D.Stephen for M/s Stephen & Stephen Associates

O R D E R

The petitioner is the defendant in O.S.No.28 of 2013 on the file of Principal District Judge, Chengalpattu. It is a suit for recovery of money.

2. The petitioner has filed the above Transfer C.M.P. to withdraw O.S.No.28 of 2013 from the file of Principal District Court, Chennai and to transfer the same to the District and Sessions Court, Kancheepuram.

3. The learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that the respondent is a practising Advocate at Chengalpattu and hence, he apprehends that the respondent would cause hindrance for the conduct of trial.

4. I am not inclined to agree with the submission made by the learned counsel for the petitioner. Just because, the respondent is an Advocate, practising at Chengalpattu, the same cannot be a ground to seek transfer.
