The Founding Fathers, by incorporating Articles 226 and 32, reintroduced the dual system of administration of justice which was abolished in England in 1875, having proved to be counterproductive

Common people, often reassured by news reports where the High Courts under Article 226 and even the Supreme Court under Article 32 come to the rescue of common people who are denied justice by the government and its instrumentalities, are granted instant and hustle free justice institute writ petitions when they face similar injustice. Except for a few High Courts like that of Kerala where relief under the writ jurisdiction is granted without being confronted by questions as to the maintainability of the petition for the petitioner not having exhausted the “alternative remedies”, realise that reality is different from perception. In high...

In our legal system, if a lawyer is falsely accused of improper conduct, or where a judge acts unfairly, and denies a fair opportunity for a lawyer to represent his case, the law provides to him no remedies at all.

Immunity is induced differently by natural infection and vaccination. Immunity broadly is of two types cell mediated immunity by T lymphocytes and specific antibodies against viral proteins mediated by B lymphocytes. It is easy to measure antibody levels and when present in the blood we call the person seropositive. Cell mediated immunity by killer T cells is more difficult to measure but play a crucial role in destroying the infected cells and T cells also stimulate B cells to produce antibodies. Since SARS2 virus causing Covid 19 infection is new we don’t have enough data about how long the immunity...

10.5.2021 a) unlike before, a large section of the legal fraternity informed public, and in particular the press, is aware that the Collegium system of appointment and designation of lawyers as senior advocates have completely destroyed any semblance of inclusiveness in the higher judiciary as well as the in designated bar. People now readily accept that there is a real apartheid in the justice delivery system, b) the concept of virtual court, which includes making available the records of the court proceedings to the litigants cannot be denied forever. The mounting public opinion willl compel the court to do it sooner than...

There is no way to salvage our legal system unless and until we abandon the current practice of treating res judicata as precedent

Posted by Mathews J Nedumpara

in Blogs/Articles

In this country, the distinction between the concept of res judicata and precedent is largely forgotten. As a result, a judgment of a superior court in a case between A and B, which may be erroneous but binding on the said parties, becomes binding on C and D, nay, on posterity as the law of the land. Often it is misconceived that every word of a judgment of a superior court is binding, the law of the land. Seldom is it realized that it is difficult to name even a single principle which never ever existed, which our Courts since...
