Some candidates, who had seven years of practice at the Bar, were debarred from participating the selection process of the direct recruitment in the cadre of District Judge on the ground that they were serving as judicial officers and not practicing as an advocate on the date of submission of their application. Mohapatra observed that once a person has entered into Judicial Service he has to remain in that cadre and he cannot claim the benefit meant for other category of candidates for direct recruitment.
