BABASAHEB KRISHNA SHINDEversusTHE STATE OF MAHARASHTRA

Decided
Disposal
Disposed Off

Holding

The revision application is infructuous and is therefore disposed of.

Summary

Babasaheb Krishna Shinde filed a criminal revision application before the Bombay High Court seeking relief. The applicant submitted a Xerox copy of a letter from Yerwada Central Prison confirming that he had already undergone the sentence imposed on him. The learned counsel argued that, because the sentence was completed, the revision application had become infructuous. The Court considered the submission and held that there was no longer any ground for the revision. Consequently, the revision application and any other pending applications were disposed of.

Issues considered

  • Whether a criminal revision application becomes infructuous when the applicant has already served the sentence imposed?

Subjects

  • revision
  • criminal procedure
  • sentence served
  • infructuous application
