Justice H N Nagamohan Das adjourned the hearing after granting permission to Mazurier's wife Suja Jones, the complainant, to implead herself as second respondent.
The judge said Suja's advocate Pramila Nesargi can assist the state prosecutor in the case.
During the hearing, Nesargi sought to implead her client in the case since Mazurier had not submitted documents, including a medical certificate as sought by the court.
Mazurier's advocate C V Nagesh argued that Suja Jones should not be granted permission to implead herself as the bail petition is between his client and the state.
Mazurier, Consular Attache to Consulate General of France here had moved the High Court on August 7, seeking bail.
