AI extract
What is this about?
Allahabad High Court (Vivek Varma, J.) dismissed a Section 482 Cr.P.C. application seeking expedition of Criminal Case No. 6270 of 2017 (Sections 457/34, 380/34 I.P.C., P.S. Majhola, District Moradabad); held that no mechanical directions for early disposal can be issued absent special circumstances.
What did the court decide?
A court shall not issue a direction to expedite a case in a mechanical manner, as such directions create additional work in the court concerned when older cases are already pending. ¶7
