APPEAL NO. 685 OF 2009 Amin Momin Khan .. Applicant. (Org.Accused No.7) V/s. The State of Maharashtra .. Respondent. --- Mr. S.L. Mehta i/by Shailesh Kanthani for the Applicant. Dr. F.R. Shaikh, APP for the Respondent-State. --- CORAM : J. N. PATEL AND A. A. SAYED, JJ. DATED : 24TH NOVEMBER, 2009 P.C. : 1. This is an application for restoration of the criminal application no. 1008/2009, which was filed by the applicant for bail. It is the case of the applicant that his Advocate has given a leave note and therefore, he was not able to attend the court. We are, therefore, inclined to restore the criminal application no. 1008/2009. However, we make it clear that as and when the 2 application is listed for hearing if the Advocate does not inform the court, we will not entertain such a request in future. The leave note is not brought to the notice of the court by the office and in criminal matters the Advocate appearing for the accused/convict should make alternate arrangement or instruct any of his colleague to watch his matters which are listed before the court during his absence and mention them when the matter is called out. 2. The application is restored. List it for hearing in the next week. 3. Stand over to 01.12.2009. (J.N. Patel,J.) (A.A. Sayed,J.)
