Dear Experts,
My friend just got acquitted from his case under section 307 in sessions court.
What we wanted to know whether to whether this case gets now referred to high court. Who has the power to transfer to high court after acquittal. Do the police have to take the permission of victim to appeal to high court.
We are happy with the news but also worried if this case will now go to high court. If it goes to high court, then when will one get acquitted. What normally happens when person is acquitted by sessions court.

The state can prefer appeal in high court and if it is admitted then you would get notice of it.
Acquittal or conviction depends on merit of case which varies from case to case.

It seems that the state / police has preferred an appeal in your case. If so, you will receive notice.
Decision depends upon the issues and merits.

You can personally search on the site of the high court whether an appeal/revision has been filed by prosecution or not. You need not to worry if no merit exists against you.
