In Brief
Mamta Sahu sought the transfer of a family court case from Pune, Maharashtra to Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh under Section 25 of the Code of Civil Procedure and Order 41 of the Supreme Court Rules, 2013. The petitioner argued that travelling to Pune was difficult, particularly as she had a three-year-old daughter. The Supreme Court found the petition meritorious, holding that the hardship of travel and the petitioner's family circumstances warranted exercise of its discretionary power. The transfer petition was allowed, and the case was transferred to the Family Court, Bilaspur."
