In matrimonial disputes where related proceedings — including complaints under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 and maintenance claims — are pending before courts at a particular location, and the wife resides there with a minor child, transfer of the matrimonial case to that jurisdiction is warranted in the interest of convenience and justice. As analyzed on casestatus.in, the transferee court is further obligated to first facilitate mediation before proceeding to adjudication, particularly where both parties express willingness to explore settlement.
