In Brief
The wife in a pending divorce petition filed in the New Delhi Family Court sought to transfer the case to Udaipur, Rajasthan, where she resided. The Supreme Court allowed the transfer petition, holding that such a transfer was justified in the interests of justice and party convenience. The original New Delhi court was directed to send the complete case file to the District Judge at Udaipur, who would assign it to the appropriate Family Court there. The transferee court was instructed to schedule consecutive hearing dates suitable to the parties' convenience and complete proceedings by 31 December 2022."
