THIS TRANSFER PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 01/04/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: K.T.SANKARAN, J. ------------------------------------------------------ Tr.P.(C) NO. 100 OF 2009 ------------------------------------------------------ Dated this the 1st April, 2009 O R D E R This is a petition for transfer of O.P.No.467 of 2007, pending before the Family Court, Kannur to the Family Court, Kasaragod. The Original Petition was filed by the respondent for dissolution of marriage. It is stated that the case is posted before the Family Court, Kannur for evidence on 20.4.2009. The reason stated for transfer is that the petitioner apprehends that “she is not likely to have a fair trial due to heavy threat on the part of respondent and their henchmen”. The details of the threat are not mentioned. The case was instituted in the year 2007 and I do not think that, at this stage, it would be in the interests of both parties to transfer the case to another Family Court. 2. If there is any threat to the petitioner as alleged, she would be entitled to approach the Police complaining about the threat. She can also approach the Family Court for appropriate directions. With the above observations, the Transfer Petition is dismissed. (K.T.SANKARAN) Judge ahz/
