THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA CRIMINAL PETITION No.2696 of 2008 ORDER: This petition is filed by the petitioners seeking to quash the proceedings in C.C.No.362 of 2007 on the file of IV Additional District Munsiff Magistrate, Chittoor. 2. While ordering notice before admission, this Court granted interim stay of all further proceedings for a limited period, in so far as the petitioners, by an order dated 10-06-2008. Subsequently, the same was not extended for further period. 3. From the above, it is clear that the petitioners are not interested in prosecuting their case. Further, as the interim stay granted for a limited period was not extended for further time, this Court is of the view that as of now, the trial in the said case must have been finished or it may be in progress. 4. In the light of the above, at this length of time, this Court is not inclined to entertain this petition and go into the merits of the case. 5. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is dismissed. ________________________________ JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA Date: 26.04.2010 va
