Petitioner-accused and 1) Sri Srinivasa Auto Financiers 2) The State of A.P. ..Respondents THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.547 OF 2005 ORDER: This Criminal Revision Case under Sections 397 and 401 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (for short ‘Cr.P.C.’) is filed by the petitioner-accused challenging the judgment, dated 19.02.2005, passed by the I Additional Sessions Judge, Guntur, in Criminal Appeal No.184 of 2004. Initially, the petitioner-accused was prosecuted in C.C.No.67 of 2001 by the Judicial First Class Magistrate, Ponnur, wherein the learned trial Judge convicted the accused under Section 255 (2) Cr.P.C. for the offence punishable under Section 138 of Negotiable Instruments Act (for short ‘the Act’) and sentenced him to undergo simple imprisonment for six months and to pay fine of Rs.5,000/-, in default to suffer simple imprisonment for fifty days. Aggrieved by the same, petitioner preferred an appeal. In appeal, the learned Sessions Judge confirmed the conviction and sentence imposed by the learned trial Judge and dismissed the appeal. Challenging the same, present revision is filed by the accused. This is a case where both the Courts below gave concurrent findings and convicted the petitioner-accused for the offence punishable under Section 138 of the Act. There is no legal point raised in this matter. However, taking into consideration the pendency of the case and the nature of offence, the sentence of imprisonment imposed on the petitioner-accused is reduced to three months. As far as imposition of fine is concerned, the same is not interfered with. Petitioner shall surrender before the Court concern to undergo the remaining period of imprisonment, if any, on or before 21.02.2011. With above observation, the Criminal Revision Case is disposed of. ________________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO Dated : 03.12.2010 sur
