Quick Summary

This discussion explores the possibility of filing a discharge petition for a criminal case that has been pending for 20 years without a trial. The ongoing case is causing impediments in other applications. Advice suggests approaching the High Court under Section 482 of the Cr.P.C. to quash the long-pending criminal case.
