Opposite Party/s ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE JUSTICE SMT. ANJANA PRAKASH ORAL ORDER 2/ 28-06-2012 Heard the parties. The Petitioner seeks quashing of the order dated 01.07.2010 passed by the Judicial Magistrate, Patna, in Complaint Case No.144-C of 2009, by which he has taken cognizance under [STATUTE] . It has been submitted that even while the investigation was pending a protest petition had been filed but despite the same final report submitted in the matter was accepted and, therefore, subsequently the proceeding on protest petition treating it as Complaint was bad in law. In my view, the procedure adopted is in accordance with law and, therefore, finding no merit in the application, the same is dismissed. JA/- (Anjana Prakash, J)
