merit in the petition. Considering that the Complaint Case No. 2439 of 2002
filed by the petitioner as well as Matrimonial Case No. 99 of 2010 filed by the
opposite party are both pending at Muzaffarpur, let Guardianship Case in
Misc. Case No. 5 of 2012 pending in the Court of learned Principal Judge,
