THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N.R.L. NAGESWARA RAO CRIMINAL PETITION No.8224 OF 2008 O R D E R: Learned counsel for the petitioner having argued for 20 minutes wants still more time to argue the matter. As can be seen from the record, the calendar case is of the year, 2004, already two witnesses have been cross-examined and the accused has participated in the trial. In the earlier Criminal petition, the question of maintainability of the prosecution quashing of the prosecution was not challenged. Any further time to argue or to postpone the hearing is only to facilitate the further delay of the proceedings. It is a serious case, where an employee of the Handloom Society and who is doing public service is said to have misappropriated nearly Rs.20,00,000/- and he cannot stall the proceedings. Therefore, any further time will be granted. Revision is posted for orders. At this stage, the learned counsel for the revision petitioner wants to withdraw the criminal petition and therefore, without going to the merits and prejudice to the contentions of the revision petitioner, the revision petitioner is permitted to withdraw the petition. Accordingly, Criminal Petition is dismissed as withdrawn. ________________________ N.R.L.NAGESWARA RAO, J Date: 30-06-2011. INL
