Major Singh v. State of Punjab & Ors.
Case brief
What is this about?
The High Court dismissed a petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking conclusion of a criminal trial within six months. The court found the petition meritless as the petitioner failed to possess requisite documents for recording statements and the trial court had already given short dates.
What did the court decide?
The petition was dismissed in limine as it was found to be misconceived and meritless due to the petitioner's procedural defaults.
