Bombay High Court

SHRIKANT SHANKAR CHINDAM AND OTHERSversusTHE STATE OF MAHARASHTRA

Disposal: DISPOSED OFF

Holding

The High Court may, at its discretion, allow the withdrawal of a criminal revision application, leading to its disposal and the dismissal of any dependent criminal application.

Summary

The applicants, Shri Shankant Shankar Chindam and others, filed a criminal revision application (ST. No. 9585 of 2024) before the Bombay High Court, Aurangabad Bench. The applicants, through Advocate Ms. Avantika S. Kharade (holding for Mr. R. R. Karpe), sought the Court's permission to withdraw the revision. The Court, exercising its inherent discretion, granted the request and ordered the revision application to be disposed of as withdrawn. Consequently, the related Criminal Application No. 3519 of 2024, which was dependent on the revision, was also deemed not to survive and was likewise disposed. No substantive merits of the original criminal matter were addressed, as the proceedings were terminated upon withdrawal.

Issues considered

Whether the High Court may permit the withdrawal of a criminal revision application and consequently dismiss the associated criminal application.
