Case Note & Summary
The case involved a transfer petition filed by the petitioner-wife against the respondent-husband. During the proceedings, both parties reconciled and decided to reside together in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh. The petitioner’s counsel indicated that the petitioner no longer wished to pursue the transfer petition and had also withdrawn the divorce and maintenance petitions previously filed against the respondent in Amritsar. The court acknowledged this development and directed the respondent to take necessary steps to withdraw his writ petition concerning visitation rights in the Madhya Pradesh High Court within one week. Consequently, the transfer petition was disposed of as withdrawn, and the interim order dated 5th December 2019 was vacated.
