THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.C.BHANU TRANSFER CRIMINAL PETITION No. 71 OF 2009 ORDER: 1. This Transfer Criminal Petition is filed under Section 407 Cr.P.C. to transfer M.C. No.95 of 2006 on the file of the Family Court, Vijayawada to the file of the Family Court, Hyderabad. 2. Heard both sides. 3. M.C. No.95 of 2006 has been filed by the petitioner herein under Section 125 Cr.P.C. claiming maintenance from the respondent no.1 herein, who is her husband. On the ground that the petitioner is residing at Hyderabad, she is seeking transfer of the case from Vijayawada to Hyderabad. 4. Balance of convenience is the prime criterion for effecting transfer of a case from one court to another. The convenience must relate to both parties. If the case is transferred to the Court at Hyderabad, it is convenient to the petitioner alone. But, it is totally inconvenience to the first respondent, who is residing in a remote village in Srikakulam district. So, for the convenience of the petitioner alone, the case cannot be transferred as prayed for. Therefore, there are no grounds to transfer the case as prayed for. 5. The Transfer Criminal Petition is devoid of merit and is, accordingly, dismissed. ---------------- 22.7.2010 DRK THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.C.BHANU TRANSFER CRIMINAL PETITION No. 71 OF 2009 Date: 22.7.2010 Between: Munjeti Satyavathi, w/o.
