Quashing ipc 306

Quashing petition under IPC 306 filed in High Court (family dispute, not matrimonial). Parties filed compromise. Court directed State to produce Case Diary (CD). State opposed quashing citing Supreme Court rulings but failed to submit CD. Court insists on perusing CD before final order. Query: Does this indicate a positive inclination toward quashing or merely a procedural step?
