❓ Frequently Answered Judicial Questions

2 Answers
Does the Supreme Court give preference to the wife in Transfer Petitions? ▾
Historically, the Supreme Court leans favorably toward the convenience of the wife, especially when she has custody of minor children, no independent income, or faces substantial travel distance. However, petitions filed by husbands on genuine medical grounds are also entertained.
What happens to the trial court case while the Transfer Petition is pending? ▾
Upon admission of the Transfer Petition, the Supreme Court typically issues a stay on further proceedings in the trial court, ensuring you do not have to appear in the distant court during pendency.
