JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) THROUGH this writ application power of the superintendence of this Court has been invoked for directing the court of Special Judge, Economic Offences at Jamshedpur for disposing of the
complaint case instituted under section 630 of the Companies Act within the time framed by this
Court so that right of speedy justice be not denied to the petitioner.
(2.) ACCORDING to learned counsel appearing for the petitioner, necessity of filing this writ application has arisen as the cases instituted under section 630 of the Companies Act are rarely being
disposed of expeditiously by the Court specially empowered to try the economic offences, though
those cases need to be tried summarily as envisaged under section 260 of the Code of Criminal
Procedure.
In this regard it was further submitted that if the Court vested with the power to try the offences under the Companies Act adopt in true sense the procedure laid down under section 260 of the
Code of Criminal Procedure and also deals with the matter in the spirit of the provision as
contained in Section 630 of the Companies Act itself, the cases can certainly be disposed of
expeditiously as the court would be saving much of time by avoiding recording evidences
elaborately and thereby it would expedite disposal of the cases.
(3.) IT was further pointed out that if the court would be slightly sensitive in rendering speedy justice orders passed under section 630 of the Companies Act can be executed immediately after the
orders attain its finality, i.e, after disposal of the appeal or revision but the situation as has been
prevailing is that it takes not less than 12 -13 years after filing of the complaint under section 630 of
the Act in getting the orders executed.;
