Amar Nath And Others vs State Of Haryana & Others on 29 July, 1977
"11. [....] It is now well-nigh settled that in
deciding whether an order challenged is
interlocutory or not as for Section 397(2) of the
Code, the sole test is not whether such order
was passed during the interim stage (vide Amar
Nath v State of Haryana, Madhu Limaye v State
of Maharashtra, 8 VC Shukla v State,9 and
Rajendra Kumar Sitaram Pande v Uttam 10).
The feasible test is whether upholding the
objections raised by a party, it would result in
culminating the proceedings, if so any order
passed on such objections would not be merely
interlocutory in nature as envisaged in Section
397(2) of the Code. In the present case, if the
objection raised by the appellants were upheld
by the Court the entire prosecution proceedings
would have been terminated. Hence, as per the
said standard, the order was revisable."
