How do I get Orders from a Magistrate


03-Jan-2023 (In Criminal Law)
I have filed a Criminal case under Section 156/3 of the CRPc for offences punishable under Section 420, 406, 465, 467, 468, 478 of the IPC against the Respondent. The matter has been fully argued in details, discussed and heard by the Hon’ble Jt. C.J.J.D.&.J.M.F.C. on 15.04.2021. The Hon’ble Court had also assured the me that Orders will be passed on the next date. But more than 262 days have passed since than and the matter has also been listed on board for 10 times but Orders have not yet been Passed though I have also requested the District Judge by way of a complaint to intervene and get the matter expedited about a month back and have also requested the Magristrate by way of an application to pass Orders since the Court was bound under the Limitation Act - 1963 but Magistrate is deliberately delaying my Order under one pretext or another. What shall I do?

262 days of holding back to order is actually an absurdly long period of time.
It may be possible to file a writ petition in the high court seeking a direction in the nature of mandamus ordering Magistrate to perform his duty and dispose off the matter by passing an order
