Case brief
AI extract
What is this about?
Short oral order dismissing a criminal writ petition (Patna HC, Cr. Writ Jurisdiction Case No.239 of 2025, Justice Sandeep Kumar, 04-08-2025). Petitioner Ragani Devi (counsel Krishna Murari) sought registration of FIR on her complaint; respondents were the State of Bihar through the DGP, the SP Sitamarhi, and the O/C PS Mahindwara. Ground for dismissal: a complaint case filed by the petitioner was already pending before the Chief Judicial Magistrate. No statutes or precedents cited; no quantum involved.
What did the court decide?
Since a complaint case preferred by the petitioner is already pending before the Chief Judicial Magistrate, the writ application seeking registration of F.I.R. has no merits. ¶15
