Summary: Payrelal Thakur v. Sunil Kumar Shah The Supreme Court dismissed the special leave petition on 15/01/2008, upholding the Jharkhand High Court's order quashing the FIR. The Court found the complaint was mala fide—misusing criminal law to resolve a civil dispute—and that the Chief Judicial Magistrate lacked jurisdiction to direct FIR registration for Section 504 IPC (a non-cognizable offense). The petition was dismissed with observations criticizing the abuse of criminal process. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
