CORAM:

JUSTICE G. SATAPATHY Order No.

ORDER

22.09.2022 03.

1.

This matter is taken up through Hybrid Arrangement (Virtual /Physical Mode).

2.

None appears for the petitioner at the time of call. 3.

The petitioner by way of this application U/S. 482 of Cr.P.C seeks to quash the order dated 22.12.2015 passed by learned Special Judge, Mayurbhanj, Baripada in C.T.Case No. 13 of 2015 issuing N.B.W. against the petitioner but no stay has been granted from proceeding further in this case and in the meantime, seven years have already elapsed from passing of the impugned order. This Court, therefore, entertains a reasonable doubt as to whether the cause of action still survives for the petitioner.

4.

In view of such development in the matter, the CRLMC is dismissed for non-prosecution.

( G. Satapathy) Judge
