Section 443

Power of High Court to withdraw or transfer revision cases

Why this exists

When co-accused persons convicted at the same trial split their revision applications between the High Court and the Sessions Judge, it risks two different courts reaching inconsistent conclusions about essentially the same facts. This provision consolidates such applications in one court to ensure a coherent, single resolution and avoid conflicting outcomes for people convicted in the same case. It reflects section 402 of the earlier CrPC.
