Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed a transfer petition concerning Civil Suit No.527 of 2007 filed by the respondent for damages in the High Court of Madras. The petitioner, citing difficulties due to her small child and lack of income, requested the transfer of the suit to the High Court of Calcutta where other related cases are pending. The Court considered the circumstances of the petitioner and the convenience of both parties, ultimately granting the transfer to facilitate justice and reduce hardship for the petitioner.
