Supreme Court Seeks Responses From 6 States & HCs In Suo Motu Case Over Stay Orders Affecting Trials & Delay In Prosecution Sanctions

Live Law  

The Supreme Court today sought the response of 6 State Governments and their High Courts on the issue of adverse effects of stay orders in criminal trials and the delay in granting sanctions for criminal prosecution. A bench of Chief Justice of India Sanjiv Khanna and Justice PV Sanjay Kumar was hearing the Suo motu case regarding the adverse effect of stay orders passed by appellate courts on criminal trials. The case is titled "In Re : Adverse Effect of Stay Orders Granted By Appellate Courts On The Pace Of Trials, Despite Parameters For Grant Of Such Stays Laid Down By This Hon'ble Court." Earlier this year, a Constitution Bench of the Supreme Court had overruled the judgment in Asian Resurfacing which mandated that stay orders granted by appellate courts against civil and criminal trials would automatically expire unless specifically extended by the appellate court through reasoned orders.
