JUSTICE HEMANT GUPTA. 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? Present: Shri S.D. Sharma, Senior Advocate, with Shri Anupam Sharma, Advocate, for the petitioner. HEMANT GUPTA, J. (Oral). The petitioner has sought transfer of the petition under Section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 [ for short `the Act'], filed by the respondent and now pending in the Court of Shri T.R. Bansal, Additional District Judge (Adhoc), Fast Track Court, Patiala. The sole ground to seek transfer is that earlier the judgment and decree passed by the learned Presiding Officer was set aside by this Court on 25.8.2009 and the matter was remanded back to the matrimonial Court to pass a detailed speaking judgment by recording a positive finding by assessing the evidence led by the respective parties. Transfer Application No. 374 of 2009 (O&M) [2] The judgment and decree passed by the Matrimonial Court were set aside by this Court vide order dated 25.8.2009 on the ground that the Presiding Officer, did not appreciate the evidence led by the parties. In the said view of the matter, there is no adverse remarks against the Presiding Officer, which could lead to any prejudice in the minds of the Presiding Officer against the present petitioner. In view of the above, I do not find that any case is made out for transfer of the petition under Section 13 of the Act. Hence, the present petition is dismissed. [ HEMANT GUPTA ] JUDGE 20-10-2009 ds
