Summary
The appellant, Ramesh Mahto, was convicted in a criminal trial arising from PS case No.267 of 2024. After the conviction, his counsel filed an application seeking the court's permission to withdraw the appeal. The court considered whether an appeal could be withdrawn after a conviction had been recorded. No substantive legal arguments or evidence were presented, as the application was purely procedural. The court granted the request, holding that the appeal stood dismissed as withdrawn because the application had become infructuous.
