Winning with clear writing. Sounds familiar? Yeah many authors refer to "Clear writing" generating "Win Win situation" for writer and same is in the case of judgments.
Courts in India are full of cases of different types and hence "high workload".
Now we often see lengthy briefs and judgments. At certain time they are even left unread. Why? No Point to point writing i.e. lack of purposeful writing. And that's what our principle no. 1 states.

A writer should cut sentences without purposes. Several legal writers have been recommending purposeful statement making.
