¶19

Despite service of notice in the above transfer petition, the

¶20

respondent has neither chosen to appear in person nor through counsel. The name of the respondent is also printed in the cause list. The respondent is called and set ex-parte. Hence, I have proceeded to hear the learned counsel for the petitioner. I have also gone through the affidavit filed in support of the request for transfer.

¶21

The petitioner has stated that she is residing at Cheyyar along with her parents and depending upon them. She has no source of income to meet out the expenditures of her child and it is very difficult to her for attending the proceedings along with her 2 year old baby before the Family Court, Ambattur which is nearly around 150 Kilo meters from Cheyyar. Hence, I am satisfied that the petitioner has made out good ground for transferring the said transfer petition.

¶22

In the light of the above, this Transfer Civil Miscellaneous Petition

¶23

is allowed. The case in H.M.O.P.No.11 of 2024 is withdrawn from the file of
