CASE HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 08/10/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: Kss M.SASIDHARAN NAMBIAR, J. -------------------------------------------------------- Crl.M.C No.4116 OF 2010 --------------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 8th day of October, 2010. O R D E R The petitioner, the sole accused in S.T. No.398 of 2009 on the file of Judicial First Class Magistrate Court-IV, Kollam filed this petition for a direction to the Magistrate to consider the application for bail to be moved by him on the date of his surrender. When an accused surrenders and files an application for bail, Magistrate is expected to pass orders in the application without delay. I find no reason to believe that the Magistrate is unaware of the provisions of law or the decisions of this Court or the Apex Court or that the Magistrate will not act in accordance with law. In such circumstances, no direction is warranted. M.SASIDHARAN NAMBIAR, JUDGE. mns
