NO. 1103 OF 2009 = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 25th day of March, 2009. O R D E R This petition is filed against the order of the learned Magistrate who had refused to extend the time given under Annexure C order to report before the Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Court Meerut. As per the directions the learned Judicial First Class Magistrate, Kochi had directed the petitioners to report before the Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Court, Meerut on 16.2.2009 and produce the certificate of attendance from the Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Court, Meerut on 26.2.2009 before the Chief Judicial Magistrate Court, Ernakulam. The petitioners moved an application for extending that time on the ground that they were unwell and therefore were not in a position to attend the Meerut Court on the specified date. Medical certificates were produced. Whatever it may be, there is at least an intention now to comply with the order of the Court and the learned counsel submits that if a month's time is Crl.M.C. 1103 OF 2009 -:2:- given his clients will report and therefore such an indulgence may be shown. After hearing the learned counsel as well as the Public Prosecutor I am inclined to grant some time and thereby I extend the time for reporting before the Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Court, Meerut on 15.4.2009 and then produce the certificate of attendance from the Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Court, Meerut on 23.4.2009 before the Chief Judicial Magistrate Court, Ernakulam. The Crl.M.C. is disposed of accordingly. M.N. KRISHNAN, JUDGE. ul/-
