Due to the passage of time, a meaningful trial is unlikely, and no useful purpose would be served. 4.Accordingly, the case in C.C.No.86 of 2019 of Judicial Magistrate Court, Palladam, Palladam Taluk, Tiruppur, stands quashed. This Suo Motu Transfer Case is disposed of. 10.09.2025 kmm Note to the Trial Court: This order is digitally signed and communicated electronically alone.
