The Supreme Court has upset the governments for their delayed filing. Do not assume that the delayed provisions do not apply to the government, the court said. No concession will be taken by the government as of late. In expressing these views, a three-judge bench headed by Justice SK Kaul was fined. The court said that a fine of more than Rs.
Such cases, we call them certificate cases, the court said. These are filed only for formal deliberation so that the case can be dismissed by the Supreme Court. Now nothing can be done about this. Officers file cases to protect their skin, which is not properly justified throughout the case.
The court dismissed his SLP due to the delay. The court said it was a waste of time. The penalty may be high but this has not been done as young lawyers are attending the case, the court said. We didn’t want to give young lawyers such a big shock early on.
The penalty amount should be credited to the Supreme Court within a month, which will be paid to the Supreme Court Employees’ Welfare Fund, the court said. This case relates to the ownership of forest land in Goa. The petitioners filed a case with the District Magistrate in 1977, but the government filed an answer in 1980, three years later. The district judge ruled in favor of the petitioner. In 2003, the department moved the High Court. The High Court dismissed the appeal in 2013 for lack of lobbying because no lawyer appeared on behalf of the department. Following this, the Department filed a plea in 2019 to apologize for the delay in the High Court. The High Court dismissed the application in February 2019. The matter came up in the Supreme Court shortly after.
