Grounds taken normally in Transfer of Matrimonial Cases

For Wife its usually her inability to travel the distance and in case there are children then and especially in case of non working woman thats a good ground which the Court normally takes into consideration.

However the husbands  have the option of opposing the transfer stating his inability to be present due to work load and would bear the expenses of travel etc.

It is not always that just because a wife has filed for transfer the Hon’ble Court would  automatically  allow the transfer in favour of the wife.

The Hon’ble Court would take into consideration all aspects before allowing the transfer Petition and to meet the ends of justice.
