Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE P.SWAROOP REDDY CRIMINAL PETITION No.9680 OF 2009 ORDER : This criminal petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. is filed by the petitioner/Accused seeking to quash the proceedings in Crl.M.P.No.1419 of 2009 in C.C.No.290 of 2003 on the file of the Special Judicial First Class Magistrate for Prohibition and Excise, Guntur. 2) Heard. 3) The petitioner herein filed the impugned petition under Section 243 Cr.P.C. seeking to send the cheques under Exs.P.1 to P.4 to hand writing expert for comparison of signatures on it with his admitted signatures, which was dismissed by the trial Court, and as against the same the present petition has been filed by the petitioner. 4) The calendar case is originally filed in the year 1997 and the trial Court dismissed the impugned petition as the petitioner intends to drag on the matter. The trial Court also observed that in O.S.No.532 of 1996 the present petitioner admitted issuance of cheques. In these circumstances, the trial Court draw the inference that the intention of the petitioner is only to delay the proceedings as long as possible. Further, the decision of Hon’ble Supreme Court in Kalyani Baskar v. M.S.Smapoornam[1] relied on by the learned counsel for the petitioner would not come to the rescue of the petitioner as in the present case, at one stage, in a civil suit the present petitioner has admitted his signature on cheques and after passing a decade he wanted the document to be send to handwriting expert. Therefore, in the circumstances of the case, there is no case to interfere with the impugned order. 6) Hence, the criminal petition is dismissed. ______________________ P.SWAROOP REDDY, J 19th November, 2009 SUR [1] 2008 (2) ALD (Crl,) (NOC) 27 (SC)
