BASANT, J. ------------------------------------------------- W.P.(c) No. 22605 of 2008-N ------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 4th day of September, 2008 JUDGMENT A statement has been filed by the Sub Divisional Magistrate. The statement reveals that a conditional order under Sec.133 Cr.P.C. has already been issued on 25/8/08 and the counter petitioner has been directed to comply with the order or appear and show cause on 19/9/08. I am, in these circumstances, satisfied that no further directions need be issued. The learned counsel for the petitioner prays that there may be a direction for expeditious disposal. I reckon the said request to be absolutely justified. I need only mention that the Sub Divisional Magistrate must ensure that the proceedings are disposed of as expeditiously as possible – at any rate, within a period of three months from 19/9/08 on which date the parties are directed to appear. Compliance shall be reported to this Court. This writ petition is, in these circumstances, dismissed with the above directions/observations. Sd/- Nan/ (R. BASANT, JUDGE) //true copy// P.S. to Judge
