The Supreme Court allowed the transfer petition filed by the petitioner-wife seeking the transfer of a divorce petition from the Family Court in Mumbai to the District Judge in Delhi. The Court noted that the parties had entered into a compromise deed under Section 13B of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955, agreeing to dissolve their marriage by mutual consent. The Family Court in Mumbai was directed to send all records to the District Judge, Delhi, for further proceedings in accordance with the compromise.
