EQBAL) Justice D.N. Patel Judge High Court of Jharkhand Dated the4th March, 2014 MESSAGE The initiative of the Judicial Academy, Jharkhand in publishing the "Compendium on General Letters, Circulars and Orders (Civil & Criminal)" is certainly a commendable step in a right direction for awareness among the Judicial Officers and other stakeholders, like staff of District Courts. This Compendium is a compilation of important letters and circulars, issued by the High Court for placid functioning of the District Courts. Being deeply involved and busy with judicial work, the Judicial Officers are not able to keep in memory the nuances of the important circulars and orders of the High Court. It is commendable that the Academy, in addition to its main goal of imparting training to Judicial Officers, has taken pain to bring this book, which would serve as a ready-reckoner and guide for the Judicial Officers as well as staff members in performing their important functions effectively.
