Practice Of 'Bench Hunting', Seeking Time When Confronted With Queries Is Not A Healthy Practice For The Bar: Allahabad HC [Read Order]

The Allahabad High Court on Friday rapped a Hapur based writ petitioner for invoking the Court's jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution without any due cause. "This kind of practice of Bench hunting seeking time when confronted with queries is not a healthy practice for the Bar," Single Judge bench of Justice Vivek Agarwal sternly observed. The remarks were made after the Petitioner could not show infringement of any fundamental right, constraining him to invoke the Court's writ jurisdiction, and rather sought adjournment from the Court. The Petitioner had approached the High Court seeking injunction on certain construction activities in the District.
