Petitioner is an accused in S.T.C No.715/2009 for offence punishable under Section 142 read with Section 138 of Negotiable Instruments Act now pending before the Judicial First Class Magistrate, Kuthuparamba. Petitioner has filed Crl.M.C for quashing the proceedings in S.T.C No.715/2009 pending before the Judicial First Class Magistrate, Kuthuparamba. I am not inclined to quash the proceedings at this stage. However, if the petitioner makes an application under Section 205 Cr.PC for dispensing his personal appearance, the trial court shall do well to dispense with his personal appearance on such terms and conditions as the learned Magistrate deems fit. Crl.M.C is disposed of as above. Sd/- B.P. RAY, JUDGE. AMG True copy P.A to Judge
