CASE HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 11/11/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: prv. M.SASIDHARAN NAMBIAR, J. -------------------------------------------------------- Crl.M.C No.4479 OF 2010 --------------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 11th day of November, 2010. O R D E R Petitioner, the de facto complainant in C.C.No.450 of 2008 on the file of Judicial First Class Magistrate Court, Ponnani, filed this petition for a direction to the Magistrate to consider Annexure-B petition filed under Section 302 of Code of Criminal Procedure, before recording the evidence. When a petition is filed under Section 302 of Code of Criminal Procedure, on behalf of the de facto complainant or the injured, Magistrate is expected to pass orders in the application before evidence is recorded. I find no reason to believe that, if Annexure-B petition is filed, learned Magistrate will not dispose the petition before recording the evidence. Hence no direction is warranted. Petition is disposed. M.SASIDHARAN NAMBIAR, JUDGE. mns
