Power of High Court to withdraw or transfer revision cases.
What this section does
Where co-accused convicted at the same trial apply for revision before different courts (High Court and Sessions Judge), the High Court decides which court should finally dispose of all applications, and may transfer applications accordingly. Once the Sessions Judge disposes of applications transferred to him, no further revision lies to the High Court or any other court at the instance of those persons.

Why this matters
BNSS Section 443 forms part of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita which replaced the Code of Criminal Procedure 1973 on 1 July 2024. Any new filing, FIR, charge sheet, or bail application made on or after that date should cite the new section number. References to the old act in legacy documents remain valid for matters that arose before the changeover.
