How do I find court cases under Section 414 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita?

In judgments and charge sheets this section is written several ways, and each form finds a different set of orders. These search the full text of every order eCourtsIndia holds, best matches first: BNSS 414, section 414 BNSS, section 414 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita. Each opens the full list of orders on eCourtsIndia, where it can be narrowed by court, year and outcome.

What should I read with Section 414 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, and has it changed?

Its own text turns on section 136 (Order to give security), section 140 (Power to reject sureties), section 141 (Imprisonment in default of security), so none of them can safely be read on its own. 1 other provision in this corpus refers back to it. It carries forward CrPC 373 (Appeal from orders requiring security or refusal to accept orrejecting surety for keeping peace or good behaviour), so the judgments decided under that provision are the case law on this one.
