Chief justice suggests out-of-court settlement of cases.

Define favourable. Remember Manu Sharma's father is a rich and very influential politician. He was a Minister also.

Son of a prominent Haryana politician, Manu was granted parole despite the Delhi Police having raised objections. But he was given parole by the Delhi government which took into cognizance a "favourable" report from Chandigarh police.

Sharma's case best highlights the audit observation how a convict serving a life sentence is granted bail on grounds of looking after ailing mother in Chandigarh, but is instead is spotted at a Delhi nightclub with close friends.

Prakash Ji,

He is Chief Justice Ji. Governament Servent Ji. Respected person. At least he can reduce some burden. And lawyers can become road side settlement persons. At that time no need to to attend any law colleges and carring few kilos of books. No need of practice. You are free to do as you wsh only thing you mush keep some assistants like anti elements.If some one don't follow your system. Freedom Freedom and Freedom.

The suggestion emanates from the frustration. Let us not give undue importance to such outbursts.

Tomorrow: Donot come to courts. We are overburdened.

My suggestion: OUT OF COURT SETTLEMENT.

BALL, BALL WHERE ARE YOU.

Centre sends Dinakaran ball back to CJI

By Refusing Probe, Virtually Ends K’taka CJ’s Chances Of Elevation

TIMES NEWS NETWORK

New Delhi: The Centre has turned down Chief Justice of India K G Balakrishnan’s suggestion for an independent probe by the government into allegations against Karnataka chief justice P D Dinakaran, virtually ending the judge’s prospects of being elevated to the Supreme Court.

    The Centre indicated what its views on Dinakaran were by simply pointing out that it was not for the government to initiate an inquiry.

    The letter from the CJI to law minister M Veerappa Moily a fortnight ago had put the government in a dilemma as to whether they should proceed as per the CJI’s request but after looking into the memorandum of procedure (MoP) for the appointment of judges for the higher judiciary, the government wrote back to the CJI saying the MoP did not provide for such an inquiry by the executive.

    With so much of muck already in the public domain—the collector’s report on alleged encroachment of 197 acres of land, Justice Dinakaran’s stout denial of the allegations and fresh list of charges by members of the bar against him—the government was disinclined to waddle into the muddy waters.

    What independent inquiry could be conducted into the charges at this stage and would it be possible to do so without questioning the chief justice of the Karnataka HC were the questions that weighed with the law minister as he politely declined the CJI’s request.

    With both the collegium and the government appearing to distance itself from the proposal for elevation of Justice Dinakaran to the SC, it appears that curtains are down for the Karntaka CJ and there would be mounting pressure on the judiciary to quickly evolve a strategy to deal with an emerging ugly situation.

    By citing the MoP and putting the ball back in the collegium’s court, the law minister, Veerappa Moily, has shown that he was careful and circumspect.

Are the person's leaning and personal preferences taken into account while appointing judges?

To my mind comes the case of Justice Lentin of Bombay High Court, an exceptionally brilliant judge. His name was in the panel for appointment as a judge of SC. At a public platform, he was asked why he was not elevated to the SC. His classic reply:

The antecedents, before elevation, are verified by police. He had severely criticised Abdul Rehman Antulay in cement scam case due to which he had to resign. The police inspector did not give him a clean chit.

He had also given an adverse report while inquiring as one-man Commission into the death of 14 persons who were administered contaminated glycerol in which a Minister was involved.

The result: The elevator crashed.

In my experience in the Bar, I have seen some people ready to wait and watch what judgment a Court would pass and they are not for out of court settlement of cases. They are not even for referring cases to Lok Adalats. As per Rules, only when both sides agree, the cases from Courts be referred to Lok Adalats. This condition shall be removed and allow reference to Lok Adalat even at the instance of one party alone, so that the other party may change his mind at the sitting in Adalat and come for a settlement.

It will be like written in public Buses "APNE SAMAN KI RAKSHA SWAM KAREN" (PROTECT YOUR BELONGINGS YOURSELF). For even that we are ready, if govt. allows us to go to any extent, in order to settle our cases, out of court and no law should come in between.
