The respondent/ husband has no https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ objection for transferring the petition in HMOP No. 97 of 2007 to the file of Principal Family Court, Chennai provided both the cases are tried separately. 4. Since both the parties are residing in Chennai, and the respondent / husband has no objection for transfer, no useful purpose would be served in conducting the trial in HMOP No. 97 of 2007 before the Subordinate Court, Kovilpatti. Hence, the transfer petition is ordered. The HMOP No. 97 of 2007 pending on the file of Subordinate Court, Kovilpatti, is withdrawn and transferred to the file of Principal Family Court, Chennai, so as to try the case separately along with HMOP No. 132 of 2008 and dispose of both the cases at the earliest.
