THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Tr.C.M.P. No.81 of 2011 ORDER: The petitioner is the wife of the respondent. Their marriage took place in the year 2007, and they were blessed with a female child. Stating that the respondent necked out herself and the child, in the last week of March, 2010, and that ever since then, she is residing in the house of her parents, at Shivaji Nagar Colony, Secunderabad, the petitioner filed M.C.No.87 of 2010 in the Family Court Secunderabad, under Section 125 of Cr.P.C., for maintenance. The respondent, on the other hand, filed O.P.No.1062 of 2010 before the Additional Family Court, Hyderabad, under Section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act (for short ‘the Act’), against the petitioner. This application is filed with a prayer to transfer O.P.No.1062 of 2010 to the Family Court, Secunderabad. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner. Though the respondent is served with the notice, he has not chosen to enter appearance. Between the petitioner and the respondent, two proceedings are pending before different Courts. Since both the Courts are in the City of Hyderabad, there should not be any difficulty for the parties to defend the proceedings, at the other place. However, since substantially the same questions arise for consideration in both the matters, it is essential that they are heard by one and the same Court. The convenience of a woman spouse, particularly living with a child of tender age, becomes relevant. Hence, the Tr.C.M.P is allowed, and O.P.No.1062 of 2010 is transferred from the Additional Family Court, Hyderabad, to the Family Court, Secunderabad. On such transfer, it shall be heard along with M.C.No.87 of 2010. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. Dt.29-04-2011. KO
