ORDER
This Criminal Original Petition has been filed to quash the proceedings C.C.No.217 of 2018 on the file of the learned Judicial Magistrate, Ambasamudram.

3. A Joint Memo of Compromise has been filed before this Court, which has been signed by the petitioners and the second respondent and also by their respective counsel. The petitioners and the second respondent were also present in person before this Court.
