                               O R D E R

The revision petitioner stands convicted for the offence

under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act and

sentenced to undergo simple imprisonment for three months and

to pay a fine of Rs.15,000/- and in default, to undergo simple

imprisonment for three months.

2. It is submitted that the matter has been settled. The

revision petitioner has also produced Annexure I copy of the

receipt as per which the complainant has acknowledged the

payment of the amounts due. Notice issued to the

respondents/complainant was received but there is no

appearance. It appears that the revision petitioner/accused has

settled the matter. In the circumstances, the order of the court

below is set aside. The revision petitioner/accused is acquitted.

The criminal revision petition is disposed of accordingly.

JUDGE
