- Disposal
- DISPOSED OFF
Holding
The criminal revision application is disposed of because the settlement extinguished the cause of action.
Summary
The petitioners filed a criminal revision application challenging an earlier order. Both parties engaged in court‑ordered mediation, and a settlement was reached with the mediator’s assistance. The court noted that the settlement extinguished the cause of action underlying the revision. Consequently, the court disposed of the criminal revision application, and by implication, the related criminal application also ceased to exist. The judgment emphasizes the effect of settlement on pending criminal proceedings.
Issues considered
- Does a settlement reached through mediation extinguish the cause of action in a criminal revision application?
- Can the criminal revision application be disposed of on the ground that the cause of action no longer survives?
