Allahabad High Court

MAYANK RAWATversusSTATE OF U.P. AND 2 OTHERS

Decided

Holding

The petition is dismissed as infructuous because the charge sheet has been filed.

Summary

The petitioner, Mayank Rawat, filed a criminal miscellaneous writ petition challenging the proceedings after a charge sheet was filed. Counsel for the petitioner argued that the submission of the charge sheet rendered any further judicial intervention unnecessary. The respondents, the State of U.P. and two others, were represented by G.A. The High Court examined the submission and found no merit in continuing the petition. Consequently, the Court dismissed the writ petition as infructuous, noting that the matter was effectively resolved by the charge sheet. No further orders were issued.
