MR.JUSTICE N.SESHASAYEE Criminal Appeal No.726 of 2017 C.Selvam ... Appellant Vs.

The State rep by Deputy Superintendent of Police E.O.W.-II, Cuddalore District (Cr. No.4 of 2004) ...

Respondent PRAYER: Criminal Appeal filed under Section 374(2) of the Criminal Procedure to call for the records relating to the sentence and conviction passed in C.C. No.47 of 2006 dated 19.09.2017 on the file of the Special Judge under T.N.P.I.D. Act, 1997, Chennai and set aside the same.

For Appellant : No Representation For Respondent : Dr.C.E.Pratap Govt. Advocate (Crl. Side) Assisted by Ms.J.R.Archana, Advocate Page 1/3

JUDGMENT

There is no representation for the appellant for four consecutive times. The learned Government Advocate (Crl. Side), on instructions, submits that the appellant has already served the term of sentence imposed on him by the trial court. Except proving his honour, nothing survives for adjudication in this appeal. Hence this appeal having become infructuous. If however, the appellant is keen to challenge the judgement of the trial court, he is at liberty to do.

2. Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed as infructuous. 09.09.2024 Asr Index : Yes/No Internet : Yes/No To:
