THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.C. BHANU TRANSFER CIVIL MISCELLANEOUS PETITIION No.696 of 2009 ORDER: This petition is filed seeking to transfer O.P.No.71 of 2008 on the file of the Senior Civil Judge, Siddipet, Medak District, to the file of Judge, Family Court, Hyderabad, on the grounds that there is life threat to the petitioner-wife in the hands of the respondent-husband and his family members; that she is unable to get proper legal assistance at Siddipet; and that other cases between the parties are pending at different Courts at Hyderabad. The petitioner states that the respondent left her and did not take any steps to maintain her; that she is residing at Hyderabad and it is inconvenience to her to travel from Hyderabad to Siddipet and that as the case under Section 498-A I.P.C. and D.V.C. No.2 of 2008 are pending at Hyderabad, the O.P. also may be transferred to Hyderabad. The case of the respondent is that he is working as Medical Officer in Primary Health Center at Nanganoor Village and Mandal, Medak District, and therefore, it would cause inconvenience to him if the O.P. is transferred to Hyderabad. The prime consideration for transfer of a case from one Court to another Court should be in the interests of justice, where balance of convenience is one of the criteria and balance of convenience must relate to both the parties. Causing convenience to one party, which causes inconvenience to another party, cannot be said to be balance of convenience. As regards place of residence is concerned, no doubt, the petitioner-wife is residing at Hyderabad with her parents, but at the same time it has to be seen that the respondent is working at Medak District. The allegation that the petitioner is unable to get proper legal assistance at Siddipet cannot be accepted because she has already engaged a counsel and proceeding with the O.P. at Siddipet. The other allegation that there is threat to the petitioner in the hands of the respondent and his family members at Siddipet cannot be believed in the absence of any specific act and so such omnibus allegation cannot be taken into consideration. Even the allegation that the criminal case and DVC case are pending at different Courts at Hyderabad and therefore, transfer of O.P. can be made, cannot be considered because each case has to be decided on its own merits with reference to the available evidence of that case and all the cases cannot be clubbed together. In view of the facts and circumstances of the case, as the grounds raised are not sufficient, the Transfer Civil Miscellaneous Petition is dismissed. No costs. _______________ (K.C.
