RESPONDENT(S) O R D E R This appeal is at the instance of the Delhi Development Authority (for short, “the DDA”) and is directed against the impugned order dated 07.01.2010 passed by the High Court of Delhi in the Criminal Leave Petition No 83 of 2007 filed by the appellant by which the High Court declined to grant leave to appeal against the judgment and order of acquittal passed by the trial court in the Criminal Case No 103 of 2002 on the file of the Metropolitan Magistrate, New Delhi. The appellant – DDA, feeling aggrieved by the order of acquittal passed by the trial court, went to the High Court and prayed for leave to appeal under Section 378 (4) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 (for short “Cr.P.C.”). The finding of fact recorded by the trial court with regard to the two directors who came to be acquitted is that there was nothing on record to indicate that they were in charge of the day- to-day affairs/management of the company. Pending application(s), if any, shall stand disposed of.
