In a matrimonial dispute the cause of action is : where the marriage took place; or where the parties last resided together as husband and wife; or the place of residence of the respondent. In a custody case, now since both the parties have remarried, the cause of action may depend upon a number of factors; but in any case the courts at place where the child is residing may surely have jurisdiction over the case.
