% 25.07.2024 CRL.L.P. 351/2024, CRL.M.A. 21608/2024 & CRL.M.A. 21609/2024 Present petition has been filed under Section 378 (4) r/w Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking leave to appeal to appeal against the order/judgment dated 07.05.2024.

The complaint under section 138 Act was dismissed for nonprosecution for non-appearance as well as non-prosecution. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is an uneducated person and though he sometime reached the court late but he could not mark his presence. The plea of learned counsel for the petitioner on the face of it is untenable . The order dated 07.05.2024 specifically indicates that the petitioner did not appear for consecutive six dates.

cases exercising the discretion in favour of the petitioner will only set bad precedent. The courts are already over-burdened and the careless litigants cannot be given a long rope just to clog the courts. I do not find any merit in the petition. Therefore, the petition along with other pending applications stand disposed of. DINESH KUMAR SHARMA, J JULY 25, 2024 rb ..
