Supreme Court's New Judges: who will make it to Collegium's shortlist?

Live Law  

As the new CJI takes over on December 2, the Constitution Bench is understandably anxious to complete its reform of the Collegium by laying down guidelines at the earliest. The Chief Justice of Madhya Pradesh High Court, Justice AM Khanwilkar, with his date of initial appointment as a Judge as 29 March 2000, will be another contender, as his date of retirement as a Supreme Court Judge would be 29 July 2022. The Kerala High Court Chief Justice, Ashok Bhushan, with his date of initial appointment as 24 April 2001, and the Madras High Court Chief Justice, Sanjay Kishan Kaul, with date of initial appointment as 3 May 2001 would be the remaining contenders. If any of them failing to make it to the final list, the Chief Justice of the Delhi High Court, Justice Smt Gorla Rohini with Andhra Pradesh as the parent High Court, and with 25 June 2001 as the date of initial appointment, may find herself in the zone of consideration, as her date of retirement as the Supreme Court judge, if appointed, would be 13 April 2020. The chief justice of Meghalaya High Court, Justice Uma Nath Singh, with his initial date of appointment as 22 October 2001, and with Madhya Pradesh as the parent High Court, may also find himself in the zone of consideration, as he would retire as the Supreme Court Judge, if appointed, on 14 January 2019.
