• Speed‑up / transfer?

• Child’s wishes?
  Yes, courts usually interview children ≥ 9‑10 yrs; a 12‑year‑old’s preference is heard but not conclusive.

• How to expedite?
  Urgency motion → if refused or ignored, writ petition in HC citing welfare of minor and pending passport/visa issues.

• Weight of opinion?
  One of several factors; welfare, stability, schooling, and each parent’s conduct outweigh a child’s momentary choice.

• Chances HC will entertain?
  Good where delay affects a minor’s welfare; HC regularly issues time‑bound directions or takes the matter on its own file.

It can’t be transferred to HC but can be expedited by filing application in HC
