ORDER
The petitioner is the respondent in OP.No.1240/2018 of Family Court, Attingal. She seeks transfer of that case to Family Court, Mavelikara.
2. The petitioner is permanently residing at Mavelikara Taluk in Alappuzha District. According to her, three other proceedings are pending at Mavelikara as OP.No.852/2016 of Family Court, Mavelikara, MC.No.40/2015 of Judicial First Class Magistrate Court- II, Mavelikara and OP.No.529/2016 of Family Court, Mavelikara. The respondent is residing at Thiruvananthapuram.
3. Though notice was served on the counsel appearing for the respondent before the trial court and memo filed, he has not chosen to contest the proceedings. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner.
4. Evidently, the petitioner is residing within the Mavelikara Taluk. She has to maintain her children aged Tr.P(C).No. 754 of 2018 3 18 years and 15 years respectively. Three other matters are also pending in different courts in Mavelikara. Having considered this, I am inclined to consider that the prayer sought by the petitioner is liable to be allowed. Accordingly, Tr.P.(C) is allowed as follows:
1. O.P.No.1240/2018 pending before the Family Court, Attingal stands transferred to Family Court, Mavelikara.
2. Family Court, Attingal shall transmit all the records to Family Court, Mavelikara.
3. Both sides shall appear before the Family Court, Mavelikara on 4.4.2019. Since the respondent has not chosen to appear before this court, the Family Court, Mavelikara, if it feels that notice of appearance has not been properly served on the respondent, shall issue fresh notice to him for ensure his appearance before that court.
