1. PUBLIC PROSECUTOR The Court made the following:
THE HONOURABLE DR JUSTICE VENKATA JYOTHIRMAI PRATAPA
I.A.No.01 of 2026 In/And CRIMINAL REVISION CASE NO: 228/2026 COMMON ORDER:
The petitioner herein is the son and the respondent No.2 is the mother of the petitioner. The present Criminal Revision Case is filed challenging the
order dated 08.01.2025 passed in Crl.M.P.No.408 of 2025 in Cr.R.P.No.46 of 2025 by the learned XIII Additional Sessions Judge, Ramachandrapuram, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Konaseema District, whereby the petition filed seeking stay of proceedings in M.C.No.01 of 2024 on the file of the learned Additional Judicial First Class Magistrate, Alamuru, pending disposal of the Criminal Revision Petition, was dismissed.
2. By the impugned order dated 08.01.2025, the learned Judge, upon
consideration of the material available on record, dismissed the stay petition.
3. Aggrieved by the said order, the petitioner preferred the present revision with a delay of 320 days. Along with the revision, the petitioner filed I.A. No.01 of 2026 seeking condonation of the said delay. In the affidavit filed in support of the application, it is stated that due to non-receipt of a copy of the
order, the petitioner could not contact his advocate within the stipulated time and therefore the delay occurred.
4. However, no material whatsoever has been placed before this Court to substantiate the said plea. The petitioner has failed to furnish any satisfactory explanation for the inordinate delay of 320 days in filing the present revision. In the absence of sufficient cause, this Court is not inclined to condone the delay.
5. Be that as it may, on a perusal of the material available on record and the impugned order, it is evident that the learned Judge has considered the matter and passed the order in accordance with law. The quantum awarded cannot be said to be excessive or unreasonable warranting interference of this Court in exercise of its limited revisional jurisdiction. This Court does not find any illegality, irregularity or perversity in the impugned order.
6. Accordingly, I.A. No.01 of 2026 seeking condonation of delay is dismissed. Consequently, the Criminal Revision Case is dismissed. However, the learned XIII Additional Sessions Judge, Ramachandrapuram, where Cr.R.P.No.46 of 2025 is pending, is directed to dispose of the said revision as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of six months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs.
As a sequel, miscellaneous petitions, if any pending, shall stand closed. _________________________________________
