I live in Jamshedpur. My wife has filed 498a against me and my father and mother at Jamshedpur. Now she has filed a case under Domestic Violence Act at Raipur where she is presently residing on me, my father and mother and a younger brother who lives in Mumbai since 1997. I am into service and frequently taking leave would hamper my job also. Can I approach Supreme Court to get this case transferred from Raipur to Jamshedpur as my wife is already fighting a case in Jamshedpur so she can fight this case here too. Further my father is a heart patient as well as old age.. All the witnesses are in Jamshedpur and I am ready to pay her travelling expenses with escort from Raipur to Jamshedpur.. Please suggest

Hello,
yes you may file a transfer case in the SC under section 25 of the CPC, bear in mind that the same will be contested by your wife when the notice will be served upon her.
Usually SC passes judgment in favor of the wife but since aged parents are involved the SC might entertain the petition.
Also, you may challenge the case in the HC and get the name of your brother and parents removed, you might also take this chance before moving to the SC.
Let me know if I can be of some help.
Regards
yes you can definitely file for transfer of case in supreme court by way of transfer petition. put all the clauses in the petition. as per the facts the case should be transferred by the supreme court
Yes, your reasons are valid.
You can approach the SC with convincing reasons to transfer the matter.
Filing in different locations is an intention to harass you and your parents.
HC and SC are always liberal in offering relief in such matters.
Therefore, don't hesitate to approach SC.

Dear Client,
Instead of filling for transfer of case, try for settlement and withdrawal of cases.
On the ground that wife is already fighting a case in Jamshedpur, what if court transfer the case to Raipur.
Interstate transfer of cases.
Transfer of a case particularly in a matrimonial disputes would largely be guided by the convenience / inconvenience of the parties. Secondly, in ordinary circumstances, in a criminal case, such requested transfer is not routinely entertained by the Supreme Court. Correct opinion can only be given after persuing documents and understanding the facts. It may also be noted that allowing transfer is totally a discretionary jurisdiction of the Hon'ble Supreme Court and it would largely depend on the facts and circumstances than case laws alone.
Yes you can file transfer petition before the supreme court of law under section 25 of CPC. Supreme Court of India has original Jurisdiction to transfer a civil case relating to Matrimonial Dispute, based on facts of the case, & circumstances of parties, and if such transfer is expedient for ends of Justice. Usually Divorce cases, and cases related to custody of children, & case of Civil Nature can be transferred by Supreme Court, when Transfer Petition is filed under Section 25 of Civil Procedure Code. Matrimonial Disputes may also involve cases, which are generally in nature of "Criminal Cases" like Maintenance Application under section 125 Cr.PC or a Application under Domestic Violence Act, which may be sought to be transferred by filing Transfer Petition/Application before Hon'ble Supreme Court of India, under section 406 Cr.PC or by filing Special Leave Petition (SLP) under Article 136 of Constitution of India

Thank you..
hi , yes you can approach supreme court and file for transfer petition on the above mentioned grounds..
Sorry may be you receive some suggestion on different query due to problems in website.
Now come to your problems:
The first question is that what types of trial is going in Jamshedpur, whether Section 9 or Divorce case filed by you?
It is very tough job to transfer a case from the jurisdiction of lady to boy city as per law as the court will prefer lady jurisdiction , but you may try on the different grounds like parents age etc.
You may get permanent exemption from the court of your parent on the ground of his old age.
All the witnesses are in Jamshedpur , this ground will eliminate the chances for getting the transfer relief as they are your witness.
Firstly, you should moved one application for your problems after narrating all facts to the court , where the trial is going on. You will get some relief from the said court as well.

You can move to supreme court for the said transfer but you can also file permanent exemption application in your matter showing your inability to attend the matter in person. Your advocate will represent you in the appropriate proceedings at different courts.
1. Under DV Act the wife can file the case wherever she resides irrespective of where she may have resided before or where the acts of domestic violence were committed. Since it is a beneficial legislation to provide protection to women who are subjected to acts of domestic violence the case cannot and will not be transferred.
2. Why do you even have to go to Raipur to personally appear on every date of hearing? In DV case the appearance of the lawyer alone is sufficient whereas the party does not have to appear personally except for evidence.
There is lots of judgement relating to the jurisdiction and where the domestic relation was established the originaly jurisdiction will there
You can file an application before the court therefore if dismissed then u can file revision or appeal before session with those relevent judgement.. Then u get transfered the same
You can file a transfer petition before supreme court on the basis of facts and prevailing circumstances at your end.

1) no exparte reliefs can be granted unless you are served with summons
2) if you are not staying with your parents you have to be served st your residential address
3) wife can file application for transfer of 498A case to Raipur
Your parrents can also file that application... If u have not rcvd then if the court satisfied that u intentionally not rcvd notice then u will be declared ex-parte very soon.
Hello,
You must appear before the court on 24th otherwise again the lawyer will ask for proceeding ex parte.
Also, it is difficult that a case of 498A will be transferred, transfers hapens rarely in criminal matters.
Regards
You may have to appear through a Lawyer before the Honourable Court.
in your case the opposite party can also plead for transfer the case as you have predicted but you able to convince the Court about the hardship of your parents to appear before the court in Raipur.
Seek your appearance on the next date in Court where the DV Act case is pending. And you should approach Supreme Court for Transfer of your case to Jamshedpur. Opposite party will oppose the same but its upto you to frame your case in favourable way. Moreover she is already contesting a case in Jamshedpur so there won't be much problem in transferring case to Jamshedpur.
If you have denied the receipt of notice it will be treated as served. Court will not proceed till the notice is served to you in DV case. If you or your family members have refused to receive notice it will also be treated as served to you. Pls verify the same.
Yes opponent can pray in Hon'ble Supreme court about the transfer of 498A to Raipur but Hon'ble Supreme court will decide the same in interest of justice. But in your case lower court will accept your application for Permanent exemption on ground of long distance of your residence and inter-state case and continue your proceedings in your absence and in presence of your advocate.
U have to appear before court,
Informing the parents is sufficient compliance of notices.
On counter defense she can request to transfer in her city.
Generally the transfer of 498a criminal case cannot be transferred until there is a specific reason which is justifiable and valid in law.
If you have refused to receive the summons then you will certainly be set exparte, hence better you attend the case next hearing.
1. 498A has been filed by her, so she cannot seek the transfer of it unless she can demonstrate that she is not getting a free and fair trial in the original court.
2. Engage your lawyer to defend DV case in the court on the next date lest that she gets an ex parte order.
Hi, it is my opinion that once you come to know about the proceeding of the case, appear before the court and contest the case strongly and get that dismissed in due course of time. Send the vakalatnama for 24 Jan 2018 and appear through your advocate. Apply for transfer of case in supreme court. citing all the reasons in your favour.
