THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA CRIMINAL PETITION NO.1380 OF 2008 ORDER: This petition is filed by the petitioner-A4 to quash the proceedings against him in C.C.No.352 of 2003 on the file of the V Metropolitan Magistrate (Now III Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate), Hyderabad. Though this matter was listed before this Court on three occasions and notice was issued to the first respondent, this Court had not granted any interim stay. Hence, it is clear that the petitioner is not interested in prosecuting his case. Further, as there was no stay of further proceedings in C.C.No.352 of 2003, in my considered view, by now the Court below must have completed the trial in the said C.C., or it is in progress. 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. Accordingly, Criminal Petition is dismissed. _____________________________ (GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA,J) 23rd April 2010 RRB
