ORDER:
The present Criminal Revision Case is filed by the
petitioner/accused, who was convicted for the offence under Section
138 of N.I. Act and sentenced to undergo simple imprisonment for 3
months, seeking permission of the Court to enter to compromise in
this matter as he intends to pay the amount to the complainant as
full satisfaction.
I.A. No.1 of 2023 is filed by the petitioner/R2 to permit the
petitioner/R2 and R1/petitioner, to compromise the offence in CC
No.330/2005 dt.05.07.2006 on the file of Special Judicial Magistrate
of I Class (Excise Court), Eluru and I.A. No.2 of 2023 is also filed by

No.330/2005 dt.05.07.2006 on the file of Special Judicial Magistrate
of I Class (Excise Court), Eluru.
Heard both the counsel.
Though the accused entered the compromise at the stage of
revision, in the interest of justice, taking into consideration of their
poor financial conditions, this Court is permitting them to
compromise the matter.
Both parties present. Complainant informed that as he
received the cheque amount, the case may be disposed of.
Accordingly, I.A. No.1 of 2023 is allowed permitting the parties to
enter the compromise and I.A. No.2 of 2023 is allowed, recording the
compromise.
In the light of the compromise recorded between the parties,
judgment impugned convicting the accused for the offence
punishable under Section 138 of N.I. Act and sentence passed
against him is hereby set aside. Consequently, accused is acquitted
for the offence punishable under Section 138 of N.I. Act.
Accordingly, Criminal Revision Case is disposed of. As a sequel
thereto, miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending shall stand closed.
