warrant cancellation

 The application for permanant exemption was pending, it was not granted, so it is but natural for the judge to fine the accused. But the amount of fine should be just and resonable. In the given circumstances it is excessive.

The judge has discretion to fine the accused, but it is very excessive. she may go for revision before high court

a judge cant impose fine upon the accused for his/her failure 2 appear before the court. at d most the court can do is that it can forefit the surities of d accused n if the sureties r forefited by d court, it directs d surety 2 appear before it n prduce the accused before it  or pay d surety amount. n if d surety produces d accused before d court then court imposes nominal fine otherwise a heavy fine is imposed.

The amount of fine is not only excessive, but more than the amount for which thecomplaint is filed agaist the accused,at least the court may have grant time to pay fine

Pray under which section of CrPC a magistrate is empowered to fine an accused for non-appearance. I understand for non-appearance he can issue order u/s 83 of CrPC for auction of his property. I am told that a magistrate has power to impose fine u/s 29 while sentencing an accused. But for non-appearance?

Request friends to elucidate.

The judges some time behave very aggressively beyond their perview and become angry when not much obliged.

you may file an appliction to exempt this fine and if court reject the same then approach the Session court or high court to revoke such a high fine, more than the disputed amount.

 Under what Section the fine is imposed?

It is discrition of the judge that when ever one did not appear then court can impose a fine or forfeight surities and also issue fresh wannts of arrest.

But person can file the applicaiton to set aside all this and to restore the plaint, court can impose fine accordingly. If court did not accept the application then person can get the fresh anticipatory bail from High court.

 Whatever power a magistrate exercises, it has to be under some law. Under which section of CrPC can he impose fine for non-appearance? He can't lay down the law. Not even the Supreme Court. If an accused is found guilty and punished with imprisonment and/or fine that is totally different thing.

Please elucidate.

The Judge can imose fine for non coperating with court and ignoring court directions. The lady/advocate has not attended the court for two years. Surprising? Now lady is  protesting for excessive fine. Why? 

Think the other way-

the prosecution/petitioner does not come for 2 years and accused coming on regular dates for 2 years. Then what would have been the position. The petitioner would have requested the court for proper attendance of petitioner. The same thing has happened.

why adjournments shold be given to any party?

If case is pending both parties should be attend properly.

The fine is not excessive having regard to the conduct of accused lady

How the backlog of cases will be cleared if parties will not come to court for 2 years.

 Dear friends,

My simple query is under what section of law the magistrate is empowered to impose fine for non attendance. He may issue summons, warrants, proclamation u/s 82 and 83. But, fine? That is beyond my comprehension. Shall be grateful for further information.
