A disgruntled citizen, upset with a ruling by a local official, harbored resentment. He chose not to appeal the decision but instead pursued a campaign of complaints and harassment. Despite repeated attempts, he failed to obtain government intervention. After a decade, he filed criminal charges, citing minor clerical errors in the original order. Both the Magistrate and the Sessions Court dismissed his claims. He has now approached the High Court, citing a technical legal provision, and a notice has been issued. The official needs to prepare a defense, beyond the Judge Protection Act, to counter these accusations.

The official should focus on the delay in filing the charges, arguing that it undermines the credibility of the allegations. The defense should also highlight the dismissal by the Magistrate and Sessions Court, demonstrating that the charges lack merit. Additionally, the official can emphasize that the minor clerical errors, if any, do not invalidate the original order.
