THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N.R.L. NAGESWARA RAO CRIMINAL PETITION No. 6216 of 2010 ORDER: This application is filed by the petitioners under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (for short “Cr.P.C.”) to quash the proceedings in Lok Adalat case No.251 of 2010 in Crl.M.P.No.82 of 2009 in M.C.No.69 of 2008 on the file of the Family Court, Nalgonda. Evidently, the question of entertaining the legality or illegality of the Lok Adalat Award does not arise when it has become final and the only remedy to the party aggrieved by it is to challenge under writ proceedings about the enforceability of the Lok Adalat Award. If any other criminal act is committed, the petitioners are at liberty to proceed according to law. But by exercising the power under Section 482 of Cr.P.C., the question of interfering with the Award passed by the Lok Adalat is beyond the scope of jurisdiction and cannot be entertained. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is dismissed. ________________________ N.R.L. NAGESWARA RAO, J Date: 04-07-2011 MR THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N.R.L.
