IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.6367 of 2008 Tilo Yadav, son of Late Huro Yadav, village Dumar Kola, PS Khaira, District Jamui – petitioner. Vs. 1. The State of Bihar, 2. Sheo Nandan Yadav, son of Ram Gulan Yadav, village Dumar Kola, PS Khaira, District Jamui – opp. parties. 6 8.12.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the counsel appearing on behalf of the State. This application has been filed for quashing the order, dated 21.1.2008 passed by the Additional Dist. & Sessions Judge, FTC IV, Jamui in S.C. No. 491/1996 by which the time petition filed on behalf of the petitioner to obtain certified copy and get it marked as an exhibit in the case has been rejected. The case was committed in 1996 and has been pending for almost thirteen years. Charges in this case were framed on 16.12.2000. On 17.1.2008 it appears that the defence counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner made a request for grant of time to produce some evidence. On 21.1.2008 another petition was filed praying for some time. I do not think it was proper for the court to reject the prayer and some time ought to have been given by the court below. This matter has been filed in this court and is pending for one year. It would have been much better for the court to grant some time as a last chance. In the circumstances it is directed that the petitioner should produce a copy of this order in the court below and the court 2 should grant one week’s time in order to produce whatever materials the petitioner wants to produce and thereafter to proceed in the case. This application is disposed of with the aforesaid observation. haque (Sheema Ali Khan, J.)
