The writ petition is allowed to be withdrawn and disposed of.

Summary

Petitioner Sonali Milind Patil filed Criminal Writ Petition No. 4536 of 2026 in the Bombay High Court inadvertently. The petitioner’s counsel informed the court that the appropriate remedy is a revision, which has already been filed in the same court. The petitioner sought to withdraw the writ petition. The court examined the claim that the writ was filed in error and that a pending revision would address the grievance. Accordingly, the court permitted the withdrawal of the writ petition and ordered its disposal.

                                          DATED :      17th SEPTEMBER 2026
                    PC:-


                    1.       Learned Counsel appearing for the Petitioner states that

                    inadvertently this Writ Petition was filed and in fact, the Revision is

                    maintainable. He further states that the Revision has already been

                    filed in this Court, wherein a statement is made that this Writ

                    Petition will be withdrawn.



                    2.       Accordingly, the Writ Petition is allowed to be withdrawn

                    and disposed of as such.




                                                               [MADHAV J. JAMDAR, J.]
