Explanation:

A warrant case relates to offences punishable with death or imprisonment for a term greater than two years.

A summons case means a case relating to an offence that is not a warrant case, i.e. cases relating to offences punishable with imprisonment of less than two years.

In a summary trial, no sentence of imprisonment for a term exceeding three months can be passed in any conviction. Usually in such cases, a special summons is sent to the offender requiring him to either attend court and defend himself or admit guilt and pay a fine by post. If a fine of Rs. 200 or less is imposed in such trials, then the accused has no right of appeal
