Holding
The interim application was disposed of as infructuous because the applicant's sentence was already suspended.
Summary
Sunil Sahebrao Sawane filed an interim application before the Bombay High Court seeking relief in a criminal revision matter (Revn-522-2022). The applicant contended that his sentence had already been suspended, rendering the application unnecessary. The learned counsel for the applicant submitted that the suspension of the sentence made the application infructuous. The Court examined the submission and found no merit in proceeding further as the relief sought was already moot. Consequently, the Court disposed of the interim application as infructuous, without any further order.
Issues considered
- Whether an interim application is maintainable when the applicant's sentence has already been suspended?
Subjects
- criminal procedure
- suspension of sentence
- interim application
- infructuous
