Regarding DVC Case Quash Regarding DVC Case Quash

2 years ago

Can DVC Case be quashed in High Court ? Some of them are telling that only FIR's can be quashed but not DVC case under sec 482. I have searched the net and could find that DVC can be quashed. Still have doubts in mind and not sure if DVC can be quashed in High Court and if so under what section. Please advise.

A.Dear client,
DVC complaint cannot be quashed by Highcourt. You have to file discharge petition in trial court to discharge the DVC. If the trial court is declining make an appeal to the sessions court under section 29 of DVC Act you will get discharge order. But first respondent may not get discharge order only family members of the respondent may get it.

A.Hi,
Section 482 CrPC confers the HC with an inherent power to quash an FIR or a complaint, upon satisfaction of well-established parameters. Under Section 482 CrPC – “nothing in this Code shall be deemed to limit or affect the inherent powers of the High Court to make such orders as may be necessary to give effect to any order under this Code, or to prevent abuse of the process of any Court or otherwise to secure the ends of justice”. This provision confers the HC with an inherent power to quash an FIR or a complaint, upon satisfaction of well-established parameters.

A.Hi,
Recently, in Neeharika Infrastructure Private Limited v. State of Maharashtra a three-judge bench of the Supreme Court pronounced a detailed judgment on the powers of the High Court, while adjudicating a petition for quashing of the FIR – filed under Section 482 of the Criminal Procedure Code, 1973 and Article 226 of the Constitution of India. This provision confers the HC with an inherent power to quash an FIR or a complaint, upon satisfaction of well-established parameters that have been laid down
