Allahabad High Court

SUBHASH CHAUBEYversusSTATE OF UP AND ANOTHER

Decided

Holding

The revision is dismissed as infructuous because a final judgment has already been passed.

Summary

The petitioners filed a criminal revision (No. 2201 of 2026) before the Allahabad High Court challenging a decision of the trial court. Counsel for the petitioners argued that the revision had become infructuous because a final judgment had already been rendered by the trial court. The court examined whether a revision could proceed when the substantive matter had been finally decided. Finding that the purpose of the revision was defeated by the final judgment, the court held that the revision could not be entertained. Consequently, the revision was dismissed as infructuous.

                                    1. Learned counsel for the revisionist states that the present revision has
                                    become infructuous for the reason that, a final judgment has already been
                                    passed by the learned Trial Court.

                                    2. Accordingly, the instant revision is dismissed as infructuous.
