Recent ruling of supreme court

Unnikrishnan Sukumar (Querist) 08 July 2012 This query is : Resolved
Supreme Court recently ruled in a recent case relating to section 138 that if the presiding officer changes in the middle of a trial, the hearing needs to start from the beginning, The new judge cannot base his judgement on the observations of the previous officer.
I need to look at the text of the judgement. Can I look forward to kind help?
