                   Dated this the 29th day of July, 2010

                                     ORDER

Petitioner who is the sole accused in S.C.No.409/2007 on

the file of the Additional Sessions Judge (Fast Track) Court-I,

Pathanamthitta arising out of O.R.No.6/2005 of Pathanamthitta

Excise Range.

Admittedly the court below has framed the charge. This

means that the petitioner either did not plead for a discharge or

did not get a discharge. Trial has thus started. The only course

now open to the petitioner is to face trial. The petitioner will be

entitled to apply for personal exemption by filing a petition

incorporating the necessary averments. The learned Magistrate

shall consider his request favourably and pass appropriate

orders and shall not insist upon his personal appearance unless

it is inevitable at any subsequent stages of the trial.

Dated this the 29th day of July, 2010.

V. RAMKUMAR, JUDGE
