Holding
The application was disposed of as the petitioner withdrew his request for relief.
Summary
The petitioner, Sony Pandey, filed a criminal miscellaneous application under Section 482 of the Criminal Procedure Code seeking to quash an order dated 23 August 2018 passed by the Sessions Judge, Darbhanga, which had set aside a previous order and directed the production of minor children before a court in Gorakhpur. During the hearing on 17 March 2026, the petitioner's counsel expressed that he no longer wished to pursue the petition and requested its disposal. The State's counsel raised no objection to this request. The Court, after considering the submissions, disposed of the application without further order. Consequently, the earlier order remains unaffected, and the matter stands closed as the petitioner withdrew the relief sought.
