ORDER
The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner seeks transfer of the case from the Subordinate Court, Ambattur, to the Family Court, Chennai. Admittedly, both parties are residing in Chennai. Since all the hearings
are being conducted at Chennai and the petitioner is also residing there, the reason stated for seeking transfer is not acceptable.
2. Further, the Family Court, Chennai, is already burdened with a large number of cases. Therefore, the learned trial Judge is directed to issue notice to both parties and dispose of the case as expeditiously as possible.
3. However, considering that the petitioner is having a three-year-old child, her personal appearance before the Court is dispensed with, except as and when her presence is specifically required.
4. In view of the above, this Transfer Civil Miscellaneous petition is disposed of. Consequently, the connected miscellaneous petition is closed. No costs.
