Acquitted of case in 2013 and now received notice from high court
23-Feb-2023 (In Criminal Law)
There was criminal case against me filed in 2009 and it was finished in the sessions court in 2013. I was acquitted. Now i have received notice from the high court. I am a student and i want to know can a case be reopened after 3 years? What should i do?
According to section 378 of CrPC an appeal to the order of acquittal can be made before the High Court having original jurisdiction to the order of acquittal passed by the session court but the limitation period to make an appeal is six months where the complainant is a public servant and sixty days in every other cases which is to be calculated from the date of order of acquittal. Since notice has been issued by High Court you need to appear before the high court or hire an advocate to appear on behalf of you.
