HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE R.K.GAUBA
16.07.2018 These petitions arise out of nine criminal complaint case instituted by the petitioner against the private party respondents, alleging offences punishable under Sections 138 Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881 having
•y been committed qua different cheques. The petitioner, it appears from the submissions, has been primarily aggrieved because there is inordinate delay in the progress of the proceedings before the trial court. These petitions are listed on 01.08.2018 having been adjourned on joint request by order dated
23.04.2018. They have been taken up today on applications being moved seeking directions for the trial court record be sent back as on such account the proceedings there are held up.
During the hearing, the counsel for the petitioners submitted that he does not press the main petitions filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. read with
Article 227 of the Constitution of India except to pray that the trial court be called uponto proceed withthe complaint cases expeditiously. The counsel
- for the private party respondents - accused before the trial court - fairly submits that there is no objection to such direction being given to the trial court and further assuring that the accused persons and the defence counsel would fully cooperate withthe effort to have expeditious proceedings in the trial, his plea, however, being that the trial court also be called upon to take expeditious decision on all objections raised including on the non-filing of all the documents and on the question of limitation.
