The petitioner approached this Court for transfer of O.P.No.120/2010 pending before the Family Court, Ettumanoor to the Family Court, Thiruvananthapuram. Among other facts, it is also stated that the petitioner herein is aged 69, and that she is suffering from diabetes mellitus, severe hypertension, heart disease, Asthma etc. 2.

The petitioner prayed that O.P.No.361/2010 may be withdrawn and to transfer the same to the Family Court, Ettumanoor, so that both the OPs. can be tried jointly. The reasons stated is that the petitioner herein is a poor lady struggling to look after herself and her minor children, that she has no income and means to travel and conduct the case at Thiruvananthapuram. Both the original petitions are of the year 2010. 3. I find that the respective petitioners have not made out any valid grounds for transferring the original petitions. The only relief that can be extended at this point of time is to direct the respective Family Court to try and dispose of the original petitions at an early date. Accordingly, these transfer petitions are disposed of with a direction to the Family Court Ettumanoor and Thiruvananthapuram to try and dispose of O.P.Nos.120/10 and -3- TP(C).No.97 & 135/2010 361/10 pending before the respective Family Courts within a period of nine months from the date of receipt of the copy of this judgment.
