Chapter VIII - RECIPROCAL ARRANGEMENTS FOR ASSISTANCE IN CERTAIN MATTERS AND PROCEDURE FOR ATTACHMENT AND FORFEITURE OF PROPERTY (From Section 111 to Section 124)
Irregular proceedings do not automatically vitiate actions by a magistrate who acted erroneously in good faith. Irregular proceedings by a magistrate will not be set aside solely because the magistrate lacked legal authority, provided the magistrate acted erroneously but in good faith. This applies to functions such as issuing search warrants, ordering police investigations, holding inquests, issuing process for apprehension beyond local limits, taking cognizance under specified clauses, making over a case, tendering pardon, recalling and trying a case himself, and selling property.
