No. 27174 of 2015, praying for extension of period for deposit of 20% of the amount in question by the petitioner. On query by this Court regarding the deposit of 20% of the amount in question, it has been submitted that the said amount has not yet been deposited by the petitioner.

Considering the aforesaid fact, I find no valid reason to grant any further extension of time to the petitioner.

Case No. 49 of 2015, pending in the court of learned Judicial Magistrate-Ist Class, Gaya, stands cancelled/vacated as he has failed to comply with of his own submissions/undertaking.

The present modification application is, accordingly, dismissed.

If the petitioner surrenders in the court below within a period of four weeks and deposits the amount in question, the same shall be considered on its own merit without being prejudiced by the order of this Court.
