Supreme Court grants stay order in complaint proceedings
The Supreme Court of India, comprising HON'BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE, HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE B.R. GAVAI, and HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SURYA KANT, granted an order staying proceedings in complaint CC No. 56/2018. The petitioner, represented by Dr. A.M. Singhvi and team, and the respondent, represented by Mr. Tushar Mehta and team, were heard before the court issued the stay order, following a request by the Solicitor General. (2019 (12) TMI 1560 - SC Order)
SUPREME COURT OF INDIA, 2019 (12) TMI 1560 - Order. "Issue notice." The Court heard both sides and issued notice in the petition. The Learned Solicitor General stated that "in the peculiar facts of this case, further proceedings in the complaint filed by the respondent being CC No. 56/2018 pending before the Special Court, Principal Sessions Judge, City Civil Court, Chennai may be stayed." On that basis the Court directed that proceedings in CC No. 56/2018 may be stayed and "Order accordingly." The reasoning rests on the Solicitor General's representation of the case's peculiar facts and the Court's acceptance of that representation as sufficient to grant a stay of the subordinate criminal proceedings pending further orders.
