O JUDGE VK N.K.BALAKRISHNAN, J. ---------------------------------------------------- Crl.M.C.No.1356 of 2011 ---------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 18th day of November, 2011 Order The petitioners 1 to 5 are the accused in CC No.375 of 2010 on the file of JFCM Court, Koyilandi. When this petition was admitted, in the light of the submission made by the learned counsel for the petitioners and in the light of what was stated in the petition, notice was issued to the first respondent to explore the possibility of settlement, if any. Though the case underwent three or four adjournments and though the learned counsel appearing for the first respondent was enquired as to whether there is any possibility of settlement, the information received by the learned counsel from the first respondent is that there is no possibility of settlement and that the first respondent is not ready to appear before the Mediation Centre. 2. As the case is pending before the learned Magistrate, it is not necessary to consider the merits or demerits of the case as the parties can advance their contentions before the court below. However, still the learned Magistrate can explore the possibility Crl.M.C.1356/11 2 of settlement, if any, before proceeding for trial. The Crl.M.C. is disposed of as above.
