Gujarat High Court Directs Judicial Officers To Strictly Observe Court Working Hours

Live Law  

The High Court of Gujarat has directed all judicial officers in the state to maintain strict observance of court working hours and punctually dispose judicial business. This was after the High Court's attention was drawn towards the frequent violation of instructions contained in Paragraph 2 of Chapter-I of the Civil Manual and various High Court Circulars and letters issued with regard to the observance of court working hours and full-time sitting in courtroom during working hours. All the principal judicial officers in the state judiciary were also requested to identify the judicial officers not following these instructions issued by the High Court and to submit a report to the High Court of Gujarat with regards to non-observance of court working hours by judicial officers working therein. Now, the High Court has warned that non-observance of court working hours will be viewed seriously and may invite disciplinary action against erring judicial officers.
