Holding
The High Court directed the subordinate court to decide the pending matter within six months, fixing fortnightly short dates.
Summary
The petitioner, Mangaru, filed a writ petition (WRIT-C No. 38433 of 2026) seeking expeditious disposal of his pending criminal case (Case No. 1339 of 2026) before a subordinate court. The petition argued that the matter was languishing and required a directive for timely resolution. The High Court examined the order sheet and found that a direction was indeed warranted to prevent undue delay. Consequently, the Court ordered the subordinate court to decide the pending case within six months from the date the order is produced, directing it to fix short dates preferably on a fortnightly basis. The petition was therefore disposed of with the said direction.
