A.Dear Client,

There is no specific timeframe mentioned for submitting an Application under section 482 of the Cr. P.C. However, it is generally expected to be filed within a reasonable period, typically within 90 days. Consequently, after four years have passed, it is now considered barred due to exceeding the limitation period.

There has been no limitation prescribed for making an Application under section 482, Cr. P.C. However, the Application is to be filed within a reasonable period of 90 days. So, after the lapse of 4 years, it is now barred by limitation.

A.Dear Sir,
It is too late to file quashing petition. But you can file Writ Petition under Article 227 and take a direction to the Trial Court to dispose of your case within next four months as maximum period as provided under law is only six months but till today four years have been elapsed.
