2026:UHC:1008 SL. No. Date Office Notes, reports, orders or proceedings or directions and Registrar’s order with Signatures COURT’S OR JUDGE’S ORDERS C528/208/2026 Hon’ble Alok Mahra, J. Mr. Amit Tyagi, learned counsel for the applicants. 2. Ms. Pushpa Bhatt, learned Deputy A.G. along with Mr. S.C. Dumka, learned A.G.A. for the State. 3. Mr. Gaurav Nagpal, learned counsel for respondent no.2. 4. The present C-528 application has been filed challenging the impugned judgment and order dated 29.01.2020 passed in Criminal Case No. 3898 of 2012, arising out of offences punishable under Sections 325, 504 and 506 I.P.C., together with all consequential proceedings emanating therefrom, including the criminal appeal presently pending before the learned District 3. & Sessions Judge, Dehradun. 5. Learned counsel for the applicants would submit that by the aforesaid judgment and order dated 29.01.2020, the learned 1st Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Dehradun convicted and sentenced each of the applicants to undergo two years’ simple imprisonment along with a fine of ₹6,500/-. Being aggrieved by the said judgment of conviction and order of sentence, the applicants have preferred a criminal appeal under Section 374 Cr.P.C., which is presently pending adjudication before the learned District & Sessions Judge, Dehradun. 2026:UHC:1008 6. It is further submitted that during the pendency of the appeal, the parties have amicably resolved their dispute out of court. In pursuance thereof, a joint compounding application (I.A. No. 1 of 2026), supported by duly sworn affidavits of the parties, has been filed seeking permission to compound the offences and to quash the entire criminal proceedings arising out of the aforesaid case. 7. Per contra, learned State counsel has opposed the maintainability of the present application on the ground that once the applicants stand convicted by the learned trial court and a statutory criminal appeal is pending before the learned District & Sessions Judge, Dehradun, the proper and efficacious remedy available to the applicants is to move an appropriate application for compounding of offences before the appellate court in accordance with law. 8. In view of the objection so raised, learned counsel for the applicants seeks permission to withdraw the present C- 528 application. 9. Accordingly, the present C-528 application is dismissed as withdrawn, 10. Pending applications, if any, stand disposed of accordingly. (Alok Mahra, J.) 17.02.2026 Mamta
