<h1>Magistrate Procedures for Acquittal or Conviction in Summons Cases Under Section 278 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita</h1> Section 278 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, outlines the procedure for acquittal or conviction in summons cases tried by Magistrates. If the Magistrate, after reviewing evidence, finds the accused not guilty, an acquittal order is recorded. If the accused is found guilty and sections 364 or 401 are not applicable, the Magistrate must pass a sentence according to law. Additionally, under sections 275 or 278, the Magistrate can convict the accused of any triable offense based on admitted or proven facts, provided it does not prejudice the accused.
