IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA OCR. MISC (DB) No.5 of 2008 ***** THE STATE OF BIHAR Versus CONTEMPT AGAINT JAI RAM SINGH, ADV., GAYA. ----------- 5. 28.08.2008. The records do suggest that contempt surely has been committed but the respondent has not only expressed remorse for his actions resulting in contempt but has also prayed for unconditional apology for doing what he has done. This remorse and apology, at the first instance, appeared to us may be superficial. We, accordingly, while adjourning the hearing of the application permitted the respondent to show that he really intends to mend his ways. The respondent has filed a supplementary affidavit today, wherefrom it appears that he has been continuously rendering his services to a public institution since the last date of hearing of the matter of his own volition and to purge the nuance of his past conduct. We are, accordingly, satisfied that the respondent, who is an Advocate, would give no opportunity in future to anyone to make a similar complain, being the subject matter of the - 2 - present proceedings. Accordingly, we drop the contempt proceedings, dispose of the matter and dispense with further appearance of the respondent. dk ( Barin Ghosh, J. ) ( C.M. Prasad, J. )
