Supreme Court of India
Bar & Bench (www.barandbench.com) SUPREME COURT OF INDIA Re: Filling up vacancies of Judges in the Supreme Court. Against the sanctioned strength of 31 Judges, the Supreme Court of India is presently functioning with 25 Judges, leaving six clear vacancies. The Collegium met today to consider filling up of these vacancies and after extensive discussion and deliberations unanimously resolves to fill up, for the present, two of these vacancies. The Collegium discussed names of Chief Justices and senior puisne High Court Judges eligible for appointment as Judges of the Supreme Court. The Collegium considers that at present Mr. Justice K.M. Joseph, who hails from Kerala High Court and is currently functioning as Chief Justice of Uttarakhand High Court, is more deserving and suitable in all respects than other Chief Justices and senior puisne Judges of High Courts for being appointed as Judges of the Supreme Court of India. While recommending the name of Mr. Justice K.M. Joseph, the Collegium has taken into consideration combined seniority on all-India basis of Chief Justices and senior puisne Judges of High Courts, apart from their merit and integrity. Mr. Justice K.M. Joseph was appointed as a Judge of the Kerala High Court on 14th October, 2004 and was elevated as Chief Justice of the Uttarakhand High Court on 31st July, 2014 and since Bar & Bench (www.barandbench.com) 2 then has been functioning there. He stands at Sl. No.45 in the combined seniority of High Court Judges on all-India basis. We have also considered the names of eminent members of the Bar. -

Historic Rebellion by Supreme Court Judges: Democracy in Danger *
LAW MANTRA [THINK BEYOND OTHERS] [I.S.S.N 2321- 6417 (Online) Ph.: +91- 9310053923 Website: journal.lawmantra.co.in E-mail: [email protected] [email protected] HISTORIC REBELLION BY SUPREME COURT JUDGES: DEMOCRACY IN DANGER * Abstract Justice Jasti Chelameswar, who along with Justices Ranjan Gogoi — tipped to be the chief justice after CJI Dipak Misra retires in October — MB Lokur and Kurian Joseph called the conference, said they had been “compelled to call” the conference. “This is an extraordinary event in the history of the nation, more particularly this nation... The administration of the Supreme Court is not in order and many things which are less than desirable have happened in the last few months,” he added. Introduction Turmoil in Supreme Court was seen as four judges speak out against Chief Justice Dipak Misra, Supreme Court judges J Chelameswar, Ranjan Gogoi, MB Lokur and Kurian Joseph release letter raising questions over the justice delivery system and allocation of cases. Simmering differences in the Supreme Court of India bloomed on Friday-12th January, 2018, with four senior judges publicly criticising the Chief Justice of India (CJI) for his style of administration and over the allocation of cases. The unexpected press conference, and the not entirely surprising revelations in the statement issued by the judges, resulted in lawyers, politicians, and analysts taking sides, with some insisting that the judges should not have gone public and others countering that they had no other option. Justice Jasti Chelameswar, who along with Justices Ranjan Gogoi — tipped to be the chief justice after CJI Dipak Misra retires in October — MB Lokur and Kurian Joseph called the conference, said they had been “compelled to call” the conference. -
