Being aggrieved by the order dated 16.12.2015, the Respondent filed Criminal Revision No.47 of 2016 and Criminal Revision No.97 of 2016 under Section 397 of the Code of Criminal Procedure before the Sessions Judge, Bilaspur, which were dismissed by the Sessions Judge vide order dated 23.7.2016. Against the order dated 23.7.2016, the Respondent filed a petition under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure before this Court which was registered as Cr.M.P. No.853 of 2016. In the meanwhile, before the Trial Court, on 19.1.2016, the Respondent filed an application under Section 205 read with Section 317 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for his permanent exemption. Vide order dated 22.9.2016 passed in Cr.M.P. No.853 of 2016, this Court directed the Trial Court to decide the application under Section 205 read with Section 317 of the Code of Criminal Procedure in accordance with law. Vide order dated 26.12.2016, the Trial Court dismissed the application under Section 205 read with Section 317 of the Code of Criminal Procedure filed by the present Respondent and a warrant was issued against the present Respondent. On 20.1.2017, the present Respondent filed Criminal Revision No.22 of 2017 before the Sessions Judge, Bilaspur against the order dated 26.12.2016 passed by the Trial Court. Vide order dated 3.3.2017, the revision was dismissed. Thereafter, the Respondent challenged the order dated 3.3.2017 before this Court in Cr.M.P. No.319 of 2017.

On 9.3.2017, the Respondent appeared before the Trial Court for the first time and filed an application under Section 436 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for grant of bail. The Trial Court granted bail to the Respondent. Thereafter, on 6.4.2017, the Respondent again filed an application under Section 205 read with Section 317 of the Code of Criminal Procedure before the Trial Court.
