What prompts me to pen these lines are the news reports that the Kerala High Court has initiated suo motu contempt proceedings against Shri K.M Shahjahan, Private Secretary to Shri V.S Achuthanandan, the former Chief Minister of Kerala. Shri K.M Shahjahan has reportedly alleged that it was not merely, Adv Saiby, the President of the Kerala High Court Advocate Association who was involved in the scandal of bribe for favorable orders in the Kerala High Court, but even the judges themselves. This seems like nothing more than stating the obvious when there exists an allegation of corruption....

The popular concept among litigants, lawyers and even judges is that what constitutes an order or judgment which binds the party before the court is the order which is signed by the judge and authenticated and made available to the litigant and the public at large, by means of certified copies or as uploaded on the website. However, this is an unfortunate misconception which has calamitous consequences. Instant is the classic example. 2. The bench consisting of their lordships MS Karnik and NR Borkar in their lordships’...

(2) We should long ago have established a system for the selection and appointment of judges akin to that of the IAS, IPS, and other public services—through an open, competitive, and merit-based mechanism. Had such a system been in place, our higher judiciary would have been manned by men and women of...
