O R D E R

The petitioner is the sole accused in C.C.No.309/2013, C.C.No.353/2013 and S.T.No.267/13 of the Judicial First Class Magistrate's Court-IV, Thiruvananthapuram. He is the sole accused in S.T.No.34/2014 and C.C.No.64/2014 of the Judicial First Class Magistrate's Court-IV, Nedumangad. Further, the petitioner is the sole accused in S.T.No.248/2013, S.T.No.249/13 and C.C.No.216/13 pending before the Judicial First Class Magistrate's Court-V, Thiruvananthapuram. All the cases are private complaints alleging offence punishable under Section 138 of the N.I. Act.

Tr.P.(Crl) 13 of 2015 -: 2 :- 2.

The request of the petitioner is that all the cases may be transferred to any one of the courts so that he can defend all those cases properly.

3.

All the contesting respondents have entered appearance. The complainants in all those cases are hailing from different places. It will not be just and convenient in the interest of justice to transfer all the said cases to one court at the convenience of the petitioner. 4.

On hearing either side, this Court is of the view that it is not just and convenient in the interest of justice to grant a transfer as prayed for. Matters being so, this Transfer Petition is devoid of merits, and is only to be dismissed, and I do so.

In the result, this Tr.P.(Crl) is dismissed.
