Maila Ananda Rao, v. The State Of A.P.

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M.S.K.JAISWAL CRIMINAL PETITION No.9501 of 2016 ORDER:

This Criminal Petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. to quash the proceedings in C.C.No.15 of 2016 on the file of Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Palasa.

Heard the learned counsel appearing for the petitioners and the learned Additional Public Prosecutor representing the State. Having perused the material on record, it is evident that it is not a fit case to quash the proceedings. However, on the submissions of the learned counsel for the petitioners, this Court feels it appropriate to direct the Court below to dispose of the C.C. itself as expeditiously as possible.

In that view of the matter, the Criminal Petition is disposed of directing the Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Palasa, to dispose of C.C.No.15 of 2016, within a period of six(6) months from today, without insisting the presence of petitioners/A2 to A7 on each and every adjournment, unless the learned Magistrate feels that their presence is necessary for any specific purpose. Pending miscellaneous applications, if any, shall stand closed in consequence.
