DEEPAK JAIN vs ARCHANA JAIN — T.P.(C) No. 136/2006

Summary: Deepak Jain's petition to transfer his wife's divorce case from Vadodara Civil Court to Delhi Civil Court was dismissed by the Supreme Court on August 28, 2006. The Court rejected his arguments that the transfer was warranted because the marriage and matrimonial home were in Delhi and concerns about potential influence from the respondent's father, who is an Income Tax Commissioner in Vadodra. Since both the divorce petition and the respondent's maintenance petition were already pending before the same Vadodra court, the Court found no grounds for transfer. The Court noted that parties were free to pursue ongoing settlement negotiations. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
