THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G.V.SEETHAPATHY TRANSFER CRIMINAL PETITION No.8 OF 2009 DATED: 10-12-2010 ORDER: This petition is filed under Section 407 Cr.P.C., seeking transfer of M.C.No.8 of 2009 from the file of the learned Additional Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Narsapaur to the file of the learned Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Anakapalle, Visakhapatnam. 2. None appears for the petitioner. Heard learned counsel for the 1st respondent and the learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the 2nd respondent-State. Perused the record. 3. It is stated that O.P.No.523 of 2007, filed by the petitioner-husband for divorce, on the file of the learned Judge, Family Court, Visakhapatnam, was transferred to the Court of the learned Senior Civil Judge, Narsapur, by order of this Court, dated 24-09-2008, in Tr.CMP.No.512 of 2007. The present M.C.No.9 of 2007 is filed by the 1st respondent herein-wife seeking maintenance. As O.P.No.523 of 2007 is already transferred to the Senior Civil Judge, Narsapur, it is just and proper that M.C.No.9 of 2007 is also disposed of by the learned Additional Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Narsapur, inasmuch as the petitioner has to attend the Court at Narsapur in connection with O.P.No.523 of 2007. There are no valid or sufficient grounds to transfer the Maintenance Case from the Court of the competent jurisdiction, to some other Court at Anantapur. 4. In the result, Transfer Criminal Petition is dismissed. _______________________ G.V.SEETHAPATHY, J 10th December, 2010 Tsy
