21.09.2026 Sl. No.1027. D/L. Mithun. Ct.No.29. CRR/4017/2026 Sri Durga Textile, represented by Sandhya Debnath Vs. State of West Bengal & Ors. Mr. Kalyan Chatterjee, Ms. Sudeshna Mondal …for the petitioner In this application, the petitioner has prayed for expeditious disposal of the Complaint Case vide C.R. Case No.104 of 2024 under Sections 138/141 of Negotiable Instrument Act presently pending before learned Judicial Magistrate, Nabadwip. Being aggrieved by the inordinate delay in disposal of the said proceeding, learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that the present complaint was filed on 16.12.2024 and thereafter the opposite party/accused persons appeared in the year 2025 but since then the matter is pending without any further development. Therefore, he prayed for necessary direction upon the Court below for expeditious disposal of the said proceeding. Having heard learned Counsel for the petitioner, it appears that the prayer made by the petitioner is innocuous and if it is allowed in terms of the prayer made in the application, the opposite party will have no cause to prejudice and, as such, the service of copy of application upon the opposite party is dispensed with. Having considered submission made on behalf of the petitioner that the proceeding has practically got stalled for a considerable period of time, I find that the prayer made by the 2 petitioner is justified and is required to be allowed to secure the ends of justice. In view of above, the instant application being CRR 4017 of 2026 is hereby disposed of with a direction upon the Court below to make every endeavour for expeditious disposal of the proceeding being Complaint Case No.104 of 2024, presently pending before learned Judicial Magistrate, Nabadwip and to make his best effort to conclude the entire proceeding, preferably within a period of six months from the next date of hearing. Parties to act on a server copy of this order duly collected from the official website of the Hon’ble High Court, Calcutta. ( Dr. Ajoy Kumar Mukherjee, J. )
