Crl.A. No. 3589/2023

HIGH COURT BAR ASSOCIATION ALLAHABAD VS THE STATE OF UTTAR PRADESH

The Constitution Bench unanimously held that an automatic expiration of interim orders after a period of six months is impermissible. Further, the Court held that issuing blanket directions that the High Courts should hear all cases where interim stays are operating on a daily basis and decide them within a stipulated time frame was beyond the powers of the Supreme Court’s jurisdiction under Article 142 of the Constitution to do complete justice. The judgment of the Court was authored by Justice Oka, while Justice Mithal wrote a separate concurring opinion.
