In a private Criminal Complaint can the Magistrate/ original Complainant keep dilly dallying and the magistrate keep posting the hearings on 2 month interval on "UNREADY BOARD"........without issuing "Notice" to opposite party. Is Not Magistrate working in cohort with complainant to him to unduly create pressure on the 'other side' out of vendetta .
My Query
Is there any "Limitation Period" within which, the either the magistrate must dismiss the private complaint or issue notice to other side ?
