IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.3332 of 1995 Jokhan Mahto, Son of Late Ram Barat Mahto, Resident of Village Kanchanpur, Tola-Mugiathi Bigha, Police Station Baroon, district Aurangabad. -------- Petitioner Versus 1. The State of Bihar. 2. Ram Narain Mahto, Son of Ram Awtar Mahto, Resident of Village Kanchanpur, Tola-Mugiathi Bigha, Police Station Baroon, District Aurangabad. --------- Opposite Parties ----------- 6 13.8.2009 In view of the fact that the impugned order in this application was interlocutory in nature, being one under Section 146(1) of the Code of Criminal Procedure (Cr.P.C.) and was stayed by this Court on 6.4.1995, nothing would survive for adjudication after a period of fourteen years. That being so, this application is disposed with an observation that if the proceeding under Section 145 of the Cr.P.C. is still surviving and there are sufficient grounds for fresh exercise of power under Section 146(1) of the Cr.P.C., the court below will be within its jurisdiction to pass a fresh order in accordance with law without being prejudiced by the pendency or the stay order passed in this case. With the aforementioned observations, this application is disposed of. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
