Court Name: Lahore High Court Judge(s): Muhammad Zafarullah Title: Mst. SURRAYA BIBI vs SHER MUHAMMAD AND ANOTHER Case No.: Transfer Application No, 16 of 1983, Date of Judgment:1983-04-24 Reported As: 1984 CLC 2200 Result: Case transferred.
JUDGMENT
JUDGMENT The petitioner seeks the transfer of a case relating to the custody of the minor which is pending at Pakpattan to Burewala where she and the minor reside. The respondent opposes the transfer on the ground that the case has been pending for nearly two years and no inconvenience has been caused to the petitioner, earlier, and therefore, the petition should be rejected. I, on 'the other hand, find that the proceedings in the case have not gone beyond the framing of issues so far. The inconvenience to the petitioner and to the children for whose production, according to the learned counsel, an order has already been passed, starts now and the proceedings of the past two years cannot be relied upon by the respondent. The respondent, however, has urged that the case may not be sent to Burewala because the respondent apprehends harm at the hands of the relatives of the present petitioner who are living in Burewala. The parties have agreed that Vehari will be suitable place and convenient to both the parties. It is, therefore, directed that the case pending in the Court of Judge Family Court Pakpattan is transferred and be entrusted to a Judge Family Court at Vehari.
