Patna High Court

Shyamrup Kumar @ Samrup KumarversusThe State of Bihar

Decided
Disposal
DISMISSED

Holding

The application for regular bail was dismissed, with a cost order imposed.

Summary

The petitioner, Shyamrup Kumar, was implicated in PS Madhepura Case No. 711 of 2025 and sought regular bail. His earlier bail application was rejected on 23 September 2025 (Cr. Misc. No. 63373 of 2025). He filed a second bail application on 4 February 2026, four months after the rejection. The Patna High Court observed that filing successive bail applications is discouraged and found no merit to entertain the fresh request. Consequently, the court dismissed the application and imposed a cost of Rs. 5,000 to be deposited with the Legal Services Authority.

Issues considered

  • What is the propriety of entertaining a successive bail application filed after the rejection of an earlier bail plea?
  • Whether the petitioner is entitled to regular bail in the present circumstances?

Subjects

  • bail
  • successive bail application
  • criminal procedure

                                       ORAL ORDER

2   16-02-2026                     Heard the parties.

                                2. This is the second attempt of the petitioner for grant

                   grant of regular bail in connection with Madhepura P.S. Case

                   No. 711 of 2025. Earlier, the bail application of the petitioner

                   was rejected vide order dated 23.09.2025 passed in Cr. Misc.

                   No. 63373 of 2025.

                                3. From the perusal the records, it appears that earlier

                   bail application of the petitioner was rejected on 23.09.2025 and

                   the petitioner has filed this successive bail application in this

                   Court again on 4.2.2026, after four months from the rejection of

                   the earlier bail order and the practice of filing successive bail

                   applications by the learned counsels is discouraged by this

                   Court.

                                 4. In view of the above, this application is dismissed
