HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALAKRISHNA TAMADA CRL.P.No.4360 of 2008 ORDER: This petition is filed seeking to quash the proceedings in M.C.No.9 of 2007 on the file of the Mandal Executive Magistrate, Biccavolu Mandal, East Godavari District. The matter was listed before this Court for the first time on 21.06.2006 and this Court, while ordering notice to respondents 2 to 5, posted the matter after two weeks. Subsequently, for the first time, this matter is listed before me today. Hence, it is clear that the petitioners have not evinced any interest in the matter. Since the said case was registered as early as in the year 2007 and as there was no stay of the proceedings in M.C.No.9 of 2007, in my considered view, the proceedings in the said case must have been completed by now or it is in progress. In the light of the same, this Court is of the view that this petition cannot be entertained at this length of time. I find no merit in this petition. The criminal petition is accordingly dismissed. _______________________________ (GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA, J) 27.04.2010 Gsn.
