IN
CRIMINAL REVISION NO. 211 OF 2025
IN THE MATTER OF: -
RAJ KUMAR ...PETITIONER/ REVISIONIST
VERSUS
THE STATE & ANR …RESPONDENT
APPLICATION FOR PREPONEMENT OF THE NEXT
DATE OF HEARING FROM 24.07.2025 TO AN EARLIER
DATE IN THE INTEREST OF JUSTICE
MOST RESPECTFULLY SHOWETH:
1. That the Petitioner has filed the present Criminal
Revision Petition challenging the impugned
judgment/order dated 30.11.2024 and order on
sentence dated 17.05.2025 passed by the Ld.
Additional Sessions Judge-05, South, Saket Courts,
New Delhi, whereby the Criminal Appeal filed by the
2
Petitioner was dismissed and the conviction and
sentence awarded by the Ld. Trial Court was upheld.
2. That the Petitioner is a practising Advocate by
profession and is solely dependent on his legal
practice for his livelihood and family obligations.
3. That the Petitioner has been convicted and
sentenced to undergo simple imprisonment for a
period of one year, which has adversely impacted his
professional career, liberty, and livelihood. The legal
profession requires an unblemished record, and the
pendency of the present matter is causing an
irreparable loss of reputation, apart from mental and
financial hardship.
4. That the Petitioner is engaged as counsel in multiple
pending matters before various courts. Due to his
incarceration, he is unable to appear or discharge his
professional obligations, thereby causing hardship to
his clients and disruption in judicial proceedings. His
continued custody is prejudicing the rights of the
litigants who have placed their trust in him.
5. That on the last date of hearing i.e., 21.05.2025, this
Hon’ble Court was pleased to call for the Trial Court
3
Record and Nominal Roll for the purposes of the
present proceedings. During the open Court hearing,
the next date of hearing was verbally informed as
03.07.2025, which was accordingly noted by his
counsel. However, upon subsequent perusal of the
official order uploaded on the website of this Hon’ble
Court, it has emerged that the matter has been listed
for 24.07.2025 instead of 03.07.2025.
6. That the Petitioner’s father recently passed away,
and the family is still reeling from the emotional
trauma. His mother, aged about 84 years, is entirely
dependent on him and is in a state of emotional
shock. The Petitioner’s wife and only son are also
facing severe emotional and financial stress due to
his continued incarceration.
7. That the Petitioner’s son is presently in the final year
of his law degree. The financial crisis arising from the
Petitioner’s imprisonment has disrupted his academic
stability and created further uncertainty regarding his
career.
8. That the Petitioner has no previous criminal record
and has never been convicted in any case prior to
4
the present matter. He surrendered voluntarily
before the Ld. Trial Court, thereby exhibiting his full
faith in the legal process and the dignity of this
Hon’ble Court.
9. That the Petitioner is suffering immense prejudice as
he remains under the shadow of conviction,
imprisonment, and professional uncertainty. The
matter is required to be adjudicated at the earliest to
secure justice and to prevent further adverse
consequences to the Petitioner.
10. That the advancement of the hearing would not
cause any prejudice to the Respondents and is being
sought solely to protect the Petitioner’s legal and
professional rights.
11. That the present application is made bona fide,
without delay, and in the larger interest of justice.
PRAYER
In view of the above facts and circumstances, it
is most respectfully prayed that this Hon’ble Court
may graciously be pleased to:
5
a) Prepone the next date of hearing from
24.07.2025 to an earlier convenient date as may be
deemed appropriate by this Hon’ble Court in the
interest of justice;
b) Pass any other or further order(s) as this Hon'ble
Court may deem fit and proper in the facts and
circumstances of the present case.
