This application has been filed challenging the order dated 04.06.2008 passed by the Sessions Judge, West Champaran at Bettiah in Criminal Revision No. 123 of 2007 and also the order dated 01.05.2007 passed in Complaint Case No. 1315C of 1996, Trial No. 97 of 2007 has granted the complainant a second opportunity to lead evidence at the pre-trial stage. The Sessions Judge has ordered to dispose of the case within a period of one month. This order was passed on 04.06.2008 and till today, no steps have been taken for disposal of the case. This matter is still pending. I accordingly direct the Sessions Judge, West Champaran at Bettiah to personally look into the file and find out the cause of delay and further direct that the matter should be disposed of as expeditiously as possible. If the complainant is not co-operating with the Court 2 below and is taking time and delaying the entire matter, the Court below will pass orders accordingly debarring him from leading further evidence in this case. It is clarified that this order could be passed if it is found that the fault lies on the shoulder of the complainant. This application is disposed of with the aforesaid observations and directions.
