Mathews J Nedumpara 98205 35428 5.02.2025 Kinship Chart of the judges of the Supreme Court of India The preparation of the chart has been no mean task, for no official data is available. The data has been collected from members of the bar across the country who volunteered information. The chart is not complete. It may also contain certain inaccuracies. However, for all practical purpose the chart does paint complete picture of the nepotism and favoritism in the appointment of judges and the designation of lawyers as senior advocates. The data above would undoubtedly show that there can hardly be a case where the...

No one is more hated than he who speaks the truth- Plato A look at our legal system -Mathews J. Nedumpara 98205 35428 1. We have inherited from the British, a wonderful legal system.

The common law is largely founded on Roman law, and Roman law reflects nothing but the thoughts of great philosophers such as Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Cicero, Ulpian, et al. The doctrine of estoppel and res judicata is one of the cardinal principles on...
