However, on one of the dates fixed for appearance, due to illness of the Petitioner, the counsel of the Petitioner filed an application under Section 317 of Cr.P.C. to appear before the court on behalf of the Petitioner. Thereafter, the learned trial court has rejected the application of Section 317 of Cr.P.C. and a non-bailable warrant of arrest was issued against the Petitioner. Page 2 of 2. Therefore, being aggrieved by such order the Petitioner has approached this Court with a prayer to quash order dated 29.10.2024. 4. On perusal of the record, this Court is of the view that the trial court has not committed any illegality, however, in the larger interests of justice and in order to provide another opportunity to the Petitioner, this Court deems it proper to set aside the order dated 29.10.2024 by the learned Judicial Magistrate First Class, Daspalla in G.R. Case No.55 of 2019, subject to payment of a cost of Rs.1,500/- (Rupees fifteen hundred) by the Petitioner to the Advocates’ Welfare Fund of Local Bar Association within fifteen days and furnishing money receipt thereof in proof of deposit. Further, it is directed that the Petitioner shall appear before the learned Judicial Magistrate First Class, Daspalla within four weeks from today along with a copy of today’s order and shall continue to participate in the proceeding without any further default. In the event, the Petitioner makes any further default in appearance, it is open to the Court in seisin over the matter to take necessary coercive steps against the Petitioner. 5. In such view of the matter, the CRLMC is allowed. Binayak (Aditya Kumar Mohapatra) Judge
