Extract from the Article:
In a recent development, Chief Justice
Sanjiv Khanna has emphasized the importance of refraining from unlisted oral
mentions of cases for early hearings. He has pointed out that the Supreme Court
already publishes an oral mentioning list on its website and urged lawyers to
follow this prescribed practice of making oral mentions before the court. This
move aims to streamline the process, ensure transparency, and prevent
unnecessary delays in the judicial system.
The Chief Justice's call to the legal
fraternity to adhere to the official protocol of oral mentioning reflects a
strategic initiative to enhance efficiency and accountability within the legal
framework. By encouraging lawyers to utilize the published list, CJI Khanna is
taking proactive steps to optimize the court's functioning and uphold the
principles of fairness and expediency in the dispensation of justice.
My
Take:
Tareekh Pe Tareekh? Just launch AdJourn!
"Reflecting on the concerns raised by
Chief Justice D.Y. Chandrachud regarding the excessive number of adjournments
requested in court proceedings, it is evident that the issue of delays and
adjournments has been a persistent challenge in our judicial system.
His emphasis on reducing adjournments to
prevent the court from becoming a 'tareek pe tareek' court aligns with CJI
Khanna's recent plea for lawyers to avoid unlisted oral mentions. Both
instances underscore the crucial need to streamline legal processes and ensure
timely justice delivery."
Thank
You, Hon Justice Shri D Y Chandrachudji
"In light of Justice D Y Chandrachud's
advocacy for transparency through live-streaming judicial proceedings, it
resonates with CJI Khanna's push for standardized oral mentioning practices.
Chandrachud's assertion of citizens' right
to know the inner workings of the courts and the reasons behind adjournments
echoes the current call for lawyers to follow the prescribed oral mentioning
list.
The digitization and public visibility of
court proceedings advocated by Chandrachud complement Khanna's efforts towards
a more efficient and accountable legal system."
Call to Action:
To the legal community and practitioners
involved in the Supreme Court proceedings, I urge you to heed Chief Justice
Sanjiv Khanna's advice on utilizing the official oral mentioning list for
expedited case hearings.
By following the established protocols, we
can collectively contribute to a more streamlined and effective judicial
process, ultimately benefiting both the legal fraternity and the citizens
seeking timely resolution of legal matters.
