IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.587 OF 2009 Mr.Sunil s/o.Narsiprasad Bagadia ...Applicant Vs. The State of Maharashtra ... Respondent --- Shri A.M. Saraogi for Applicant Shri D.P. Adsule, APP for State ---- CORAM: V.M. KANADE J. DATED 6TH FEBRUARY, 2009 P.C. 1. This is an application filed by the Applicant directly in this Court without approaching the Sessions Court. 2. It is submitted that the practice, which is prevailing in the Session Court is that during the period of remand, the application for bail are not entertained and accepted by the office. Therefore, this application has been filed. 3. In my view, there is no provision in law which creates a bar for filing an application for bail though the order of remand has been passed by the learned Magistrate. Since the application for bail is directly filed in this Court, in my view, it would be appropriate if the Applicant approaches the Sessions Court first. If an application for bail is filed by the Applicant tomorrow, the same may be accepted and heard expeditiously by the said Court. 4. The Sessions Court shall hear the application for bail tomorrow. In view of this, the application filed by the Applicant does not survive and is disposed of. Liberty is granted to the Applicant to apply for bail before the Sessions Court. 5. Parties to act on the authenticated copy of the order. 6. All questions raised in this application are kept open. V.M. KANADE J.
