Dear Querist, Since notice of TP in SC has been duly served on you, in the given facts in your query, you should enter represent in the said TP before the Hon'ble SC either in-person or through an AoR. Unless you do so, you will put yourself in risk of effect of any order that may be passed in the matter. Please revert should there be any further query.

what affects do i face since for mediation both parties were absent and i don't have any objection in transferring the case to her place. just for my convenience i filed divorce petition in my native, but it is her wish to transfer the case but i didn't understand why SC has given an order to give a dd of rs 25000/- to the petitioner?

The amount my be an ex-parte order due to your absence on the date of hearing over the petition for litigation expenses claimed by your wife. It is better appear through an Advocate on Record at Supreme court and finalise the issue.
