Petitioner is the wife and first respondent is the husband. Wife seeks transfer of O.P(Div.) 811/2009 from the Family Court, Kottayam to the Family Court Ernakulam. She is permanently settled at Ernakulam and there is none to assist her to go over and defend the petition filed by the husband at Family Court situated at far away place, is her case for transfer. 2. Notice was served on the respondent, but he has not entered appearance. Having elected to remain absent, it appears, the first respondent-husband has no objection to the request of transfer made by wife. I heard the counsel for the petitioner. From the submissions made and taking note of the facts and circumstances presented, I find that the request of transfer deserves consideration. I order transfer of O.P.(Div) 811/2009 on the file of the Family Court, Kottayam to the Family Court Ernakulam without delay. Transferee court shall give notice to the parties for appearance. The Writ Petition is closed as above. (S.S.SATHEESACHANDRAN, JUDGE) W.P.(C) NO. 2 spc
