Judgment
4 paragraphs · 121 wordsMaclean, C.J.—In my opinion behaving regard to the language of sec. 421, C.Cr.P., it is not necessary, where an appeal is summarily dismissed under that section, for the Magistrate to give any reason for his decision. It must be taken, if he does dismiss an appeal summarily, that he considered there were no sufficient grounds for interfering. I entirely agree with the decision in the case of Rash Behari Das v. Bal Gopal Singh (1). The language of sec. 421 seems to he absolutely clear.
I have, however, read the judgment in this case and I do not think that any injustice has been done. This is not a case for revision. The rule is discharged.
Holmwood, J.
I agree.
