THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Tr.C.M.P. No.279 of 2011 ORDER: The marriage between the petitioner and the respondent took place in the year 2002. They were also blessed with two children. However, differences have arisen between them. The petitioner filed O.P.No.120 of 2010 in the Family Court, Ranga Reddy District, under Section 10 of the Indian Divorce Act, 1869, pleading the grounds of cruelty, etc. The petitioner states that, unable to bear the harassment caused by the respondent, he has shifted his residence to his native place in Prakasam District, and prays for transfer of the O.P., to a Court of competent jurisdiction of that district. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner. The petitioner has chosen the forum, being aware of the relevant facts. The mere fact that he has shifted his residence to Prakasam District, does not, by itself, become a ground for transferring the O.P. If the petitioner is so advised, he can withdraw the O.P., and institute the proceedings in any other Court of competent jurisdiction. Hence, the Tr.C.M.P., is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. Dt.17-06-2011. KO
