Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court granted leave and allowed the appeal against the High Court of Karnataka's order dismissing the Criminal Revision Petition. The Court found that the trial proceedings were flawed as the appellant was not notified of the pre-poned hearing date, violating principles of natural justice. Consequently, the Court set aside the High Court's order and remitted the matter back to the trial Court for a fresh decision in the presence of both parties.
