As he did not appear before the court, warrant of arrest was issued against him. He rushed to this Court with a petition under Article 226 of the Constitution and by order dated 31.10.2006, a copy of which is produced as Ext.P4, this Court indulgently issued directions in favour of the petitioner obliging him to appear before the learned Sessions Judge at Gwalior within a stipulated period of time. That period has now expired. The petitioner has not entered appearance. He had filed an application before the Gwalior Court to exempt him from appearance which was dismissed. The petitioner, it is submitted, is challenging the said order before the High Court, Madhya Pradesh, Gwalior Bench. The petitioner has come to this Court again with a request that execution of warrant against him may be stayed for a further reasonable period to facilitate his approaching the Madhya Pradesh High Court. The petitioner is bed ridden also, it is submitted. 2. I am satisfied, that the petitioner must seek appropriate interim order from the Madhya Pradesh High Court, he having W.P(C).No.583 of 2007 2 already moved the Sessions Court and having suffered an order. There is no merit or grace in the petition requesting for further interference in modifying the order. 3. This petition is, in these circumstances, dismissed. (R.BASANT, JUDGE) rtr/-
