Today, On 17th December, Supreme Court said such quorum shopping is unacceptable, as CJI Surya Kant reacted to allegations against trial court judges. Senior Advocate Indira Jaising flagged last-minute complaints made to High Courts, leaving cases stranded when orders are due imminent.
Delhi High Court called it “highly deplorable” that a lawyer raised his voice and tried to overawe a trial judge after being denied an adjournment. The Court said “a judge is a judge” at every level and warned that such disrespect cannot be tolerated.
