The Branch Manager v. The State Of Tamilnadu

Crl.O.P.(MD) No. 12994 of 2025 & W.P.Crl.(MD) Nos. 1441, 1461, 1500 and 1505 of 2025 SUNDER MOHAN,J.

These matters have been listed under the caption "For Being Mentioned" at the instance of the learned counsel for the petitioners. 2.It is brought to the notice of this Court that in paragraph No.10 of the order dated 20.11.2025, by which the above petitions were disposed of, the petitioners were directed to deposit a sum of Rs. 3,00,000/- each by way of demand drafts with the Registrar (Administration), Madurai Bench of Madras High Court, Madurai, within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of that order, to meet the expenses in connection with the working of the Committee. However, the learned counsel for the petitioners would submit that there is no such post as Registrar (Administration) in Madurai Bench and that the deposit has to be made before the Additional Registrar General of Madurai Bench. He would therefore request that paragraph No.10 of the order dated 20.11.2025 may be modified accordingly. 1/3

3.Considering the submission made by the learned counsel for the petitioners, paragraph No.10 of the order dated 20.11.2025 shall read as hereunder:

'10.

Though in the earlier order there is a direction to the petitioners in those cases to deposit a sum of Rs.2,00,000/-, this Court directs the petitioners herein to deposit a sum of Rs.3,00,000/- each by way of demand drafts with the Additional Registrar General, Madurai Bench of Madras High Court, Madurai, within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order, to meet the expenses in connection with the working of the committee.'

Registry is directed to incorporate the aforesaid correction and issue fresh order copy forthwith.
