HIGH COURT OF ANDHRA PRADESH AT AMARAVATI MAIN CASE No.Crl.P.No.1518 of 2025 PROCEEDING SHEET Sl. No. DATE ORDER OFFICE NOTE 02. 23.06.2025 BVLNC, J I.A.Nos.2 and 3 of 2025 Heard Sri K.K.Durga Prasad, learned counsel for the petitioner through Video Conference. This Court vide order dated 14.02.2025, modified the order of the learned Sessions Judge by directing the petitioner/accused to deposit Rs.50,000/- within a period of four (04) weeks before the learned trial Court and till then, the sentence imposed by the learned Appellate Court was suspended. It is further directed that if the petitioner/ accused fails to deposit the said amount before the trial court, the Criminal Petition stands dismissed, without recourse to the Court. It appears that the petitioner/ accused instead of depositing Rs.50,000/- to the account of the trial Court submitted a FDR obtained by third party. Learned Magistrate refused to receive the said FDR 2 and rendered the docket order dated 13.03.2025. Later, the learned Magistrate addressed a letter to this Court seeking clarification and further directions. In view of the non-compliance of the order of this Court, the present applications are filed. Foregoing facts and circumstances would discloses that the petitioner/accused instead of depositing Rs.50,000/- to the account of the trial Court, submitted FDR obtained by the third party which is not in compliance of the Order dated 14.02.2025 of this Court. Therefore, the learned Magistrate rightly refused to receive the FDR. Hence, there are no grounds to interfere with the Order dated 13.03.2025 of the learned Magistrate. However, learned counsel for the petitioner/accused prayed that some time may be granted to the petitioner/accused to comply the earlier Order dated 14.02.2025 i.e., depositing of Rs.50,000/- to the account of trial Court. It is pertinent to note that this Court passed Order on 14.02.2025 and the petitioner/accused produced the FDR before the learned Magistrate on 13.03.2025 i.e., within the time frame fixed by this Court, for depositing the amount. 3 Considering the said circumstances, the time granted vide Order dated 14.02.2025 in Crl.P.No.1518 of 2025 is extended, till 30.06.2025. If the petitioner/ accused fails to deposit Rs.50,000/- to the account of the trial Court, on or before 30.06.2025, the Order dated 14.02.2025 in Crl.P.No.1518 of 2025 stands automatically revoked, without recourse to the Court. Thereafter, the trial Court as well as the appellate Court is at liberty to proceed with the matter, as per law. _________ BVLNC,J LSP
