This is one of the judgments wherein a criminal case filed at wrong jurisdiction is directed to be transferred to a court with proper jurisdiction!! Interesting !!
Manish Ratan And Others v. State Of M.P And Another on 01 Nov 2006We, therefore, are of the opinion that, interest of justice would be subserved, while setting aside the order of the High Court, if in exercise of our jurisdiction under Article 142 of the Constitution of India, we direct transfer of the criminal case pending in the Court of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Datia to the Court of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Jabalpur. We accordingly do so.
