The Delhi High Court withdrew judicial duties from Rohini Court District Judge Rakesh Kumar and attached him to the Delhi Judicial Academy after a viral courtroom confrontation involving lawyers, including the Rohini Court Bar Association president, during proceedings in Court No. 212.
The Allahabad High Court held that incorrect judicial orders or heated courtroom exchanges between lawyers and judges do not constitute criminal contempt, observing that such incidents neither scandalise the court nor obstruct justice, while dismissing advocate Arun Mishra’s contempt petition.
