time as ordered by the trial court, he filed Crl.M.P.No.153 of 2022 seeking extension of time for 15 days to deposit the said amount. The lower appellate court, by order dated 13.12.2022, allowed the said petition granting time to deposit 20% of the cheque amount till 02.01.2023 with the same conditions. The petitioner has preferred the present criminal revision case to set aside the order passed in Crl.M.P.No.153 of 2022, dated 13.12.2022 by the lower appellate court.
