A writ petition under Article 32 of the Constitution is not maintainable merely to seek expeditious hearing of a pending Section 482 CrPC petition before the High Court; the appropriate remedy is to move an application before the Chief Justice of the concerned High Court for early listing. As analyzed on casestatus.in, invoking Article 32 is impermissible where an adequate procedural remedy exists within the High Court itself.
