📌 Legal Answer (a.k.a. When The Law Slides into Your DMs 📨😄)

The Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC) divides offences into two major types based on their severity:

✅ Summons Case:

🔹 Involves less serious offences (punishable by imprisonment < 2 years)
🔹 Court issues a summons to appear (like a formal invitation – but not optional!) 📩
🔹 Accused is not arrested initially
🔹 Procedure is simpler & quicker
🔹 Common examples: Defamation, minor hurt, public nuisance

🚨 Warrant Case:

🔸 Involves serious offences (punishable by imprisonment > 2 years)
🔸 Court may issue a warrant for arrest 🚓
🔸 Complex and lengthy procedures
🔸 Charges are framed formally after evidence scrutiny
🔸 Common examples: Murder, theft, rape, corruption

📌 Why It Matters?
⚖️ Knowing the type of case helps in preparing your defence properly
📅 Helps you avoid unnecessary panic if you receive a court summons
🛡️ Serious cases demand strong legal representation & evidence handling

Pro Tip: Even if it’s “just a summons,” always consult a lawyer before your court date — because ignoring court invites doesn’t end well. 😬📅

Lawyer: “If it’s a summons, show up. If it’s a warrant... better call me fast!” 😂📞
