O R D E R

% 24.07.2020 Hearing has been conducted through Video Conferencing. CM APPL. 16381/2020 Exemption allowed, subject to all just exceptions. Application stands disposed of.

CM APPL. 16382/2020 This Application has been filed seeking exemption from filing duly affirmed/notarised Affidavits and requisite Court Fee. Application is disposed of with a direction to the Applicant to file the same within 72 hours from the date of resumption of regular functioning of the Court. CM APPL. 16380/2020 This is an Application for early hearing of the Petition which is otherwise listed on 8th September, 2020.

The sole ground taken in the Application seeking early hearing is that Petitioner has received a letter dated 14.07.2020 whereby, he has been directed to nominate his Defence Assistant latest by 31st July, 2020.

Since Petition is listed on 08.09.2020, which is not far away, there is no reason for the Court to prepone the date of hearing. Application is dismissed.

It is open to the Petitioner however, to nominate his Defence Assistant and communicate the same to the Respondent, indicating in the communication itself, that the appointment of Defence Assistant is without prejudice to his rights and contentions in the present Petition, wherein Charge-Sheet dated 03.12.2019 is challenged.
