THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY Tr.C.M.P.No.197 of 2008 ORDER: The marriage between the petitioner and the respondent took place on 07.12.2005. The petitioner states that shortly thereafter the respondent started ill-treating her physically and mentally and unable to bear it, she is living in the house of her parents. She filed M.C.No.30 of 2010 in the Court of IV Additional Munsif Magistrate, Guntur, claiming maintenance. Other proceedings are also said to have been instituted by her. The respondent filed O.P.No.3 of 2008 in the Court of Senior Civil Judge, Chirala, under Section 9 of the Hindu Marriage Act. The petitioner seeks transfer of the same to the Court of Senior Civil Judge, Guntur. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner. Though the respondent is served with notice, he has not chosen to enter appearance. The petitioner is living in the house of her parents at Guntur, for the past several years. Much before the respondent filed the O.P., the petitioner instituted proceedings under Section 125 Cr.P.C. When the petitioner is not able to reside with the respondent, unable to bear the alleged cruelty, she cannot be expected to attend the Court at Chirala by travelling a long distance. Hence, Tr.C.M.P. is allowed and O.P.No.3 of 2008 is transferred form the Court of Senior Civil Judge, Chirala, to the Family Court, Guntur. The learned Senior Civil Judge, Chirala, shall put the respondent on notice before forwarding the record. The learned Family Judge, Guntur, shall club all the matters, if any, between the same parties. There shall be no order as to costs. ______________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY, J Dated:02.09.2010 GJ
