ORDER:

Inspite of the matter is being listed under the caption ‘for dismissal’, none appears on behalf of the petitioner.

2. The instant criminal revision case, under Sections 397 and 401 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, has been filed against the judgment dated 22.11.2016, passed by IV Additional Sessions Judge, Kakinada in Crl.A.No.413 of 2015, whereby the learned Sessions Judge confirmed the judgment dated 24.07.2015 passed by the learned IV Additional Judicial First Class Magistrate, Kakinada in C.C.No.321 of 2014 for the offence punishable under Section 138 of Negotiable Instruments Act and the accused is acquitted.

3. The instant revision case was admitted on 08.03.2017 and a notice was issued to the 1st respondent. The defacto complainant has preferred the instant revision case. It appears from the proceeding sheet, since filing of the Revision Case, the de facto complainant / petitioner did not turn up. Five times, this matter was listed before this Court. There is no representation on behalf of both the parties.

4. I have carefully examined the order impugned in the revision.

5. On careful observation of the findings, it appears that learned trial court has acquitted the petitioner.

6. On a careful perusal of the observation of the learned trail court, it appears that the trial court has specifically decided the grounds of the revision case as mentioned by the petitioner, he has also decided on the point for determination. I find no illegality and impropriety in the order itself.

7. In view of the fact that the parties have shown no inclination to prosecute the matter further and finding no illegality or impropriety in the order of the trial Court and learned Appellate Court, the instant Criminal Revision Case is dismissed as devoid of merit

8. Under the above observation, the instant criminal revision case is dismissed as devoid of merit. Since the petitioner is not present before this Court, let a copy of this order be served upon the learned trial Court, for ready reference.

As a sequel, miscellaneous application(s) pending, if any, shall stand closed. ______________________ SUBHENDU SAMANTA, J
