The Supreme Court said it was inclined to direct all States to amend their Court Fee Laws suitably while hearing the Kerala High Court Advocates’ Association’s challenge to court fee hikes and uncapped ad valorem fees.
The Kerala High Court Advocates’ Association (KHCAA) rejected Justice AK Jayasankaran Nambiar’s offer to discuss a Senior Advocate’s suspension, urging judges not to interfere in bar affairs. KHCAA also plans to write to the Chief Justice about adverse orders passed during their protest against court fee hikes.
