Purnachandra Gaurhari Maity v. State of Maharashtra and Anr.
Case brief
What is this about?
Externment; expiry of externment period renders challenge infructuous; Section 58 outer limit for operation of externment order; stay of externment order does not extend outer limit (per Sharad Chandanlal Jaiswal vs. State of Maharashtra, (1992) 2 Mh.L.J. 1233); Bombay High Court Criminal Appellate Jurisdiction; Criminal Writ Petition No. 3239 of 2024; R.N. Laddha, J.; petition disposed of, no relief.
What did the court decide?
Since the period of externment is already over, no useful purpose would be served by considering the validity or otherwise of the grounds of externment; consequently nothing survives in the petition. ¶13
