The Supreme Court of India Bench, comprising Justice Pamidighantam Sri Narasimha and Justice Sandeep Mehta, allowed an appeal under Section 29A(4) of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996. The Court found "sufficient cause" to extend the arbitral tribunal's mandate despite delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Rejecting the Gujarat High Court’s earlier dismissal, the Supreme Court extended the time for making the award to December 31, 2024, emphasizing that efficiency in arbitration should facilitate effective dispute resolution.

In a landmark judgment, the Supreme Court of India reiterated the importance of speedy trial and granted bail to an accused who has been in custody for over four years. The court's ruling emphasizes that even serious crimes do not warrant indefinite detention and that the right to a swift trial is enshrined in Article 21 of the Constitution. Supreme Court Reiterates To Speedy Trial: “However serious a crime may be, an accused has a right to a speedy trial as enshrined under the Constitution of India. Over a period of time, the trial courts and the High Courts have forgotten a very well-settled principle of law that bail is not to be withheld as a punishment. If the state or any prosecuting agency, including the court concerned, has no wherewithal to provide or protect the fundamental right of an accused to have a speedy trial as enshrined under Article 21 of the Constitution, then the state or any other prosecuting agency should not oppose the plea for bail on the ground that the crime committed is serious. The right of the accused to have a speedy trial could be said to have been infringed, thereby violating Article 21 of the Constitution” #SupremeCourtOfIndia #SupremeCourt #HighCourt #Legal #Law #India

Honourable Supreme Court of India has held that once the Magistrate has exercised his discretion for issuance of process then it is not for the High Courtor even Supreme Court of India to substitute its own discretion for that of the Magistrate. It is held that process against the accused under Section 204 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 can be quashed or set aside if 1. Where the allegations made in the complaint or the statements of the witnesses recorded in support of the same taken at their face value make out absolutely no case against the accused or the complaint does not disclose the essential ingredients of an offence which is alleged against the accused; 2. Where the allegations made in the complaint are patently absurd and inherently improbable so that no prudent person can ever reach a conclusion that there is sufficient ground for proceeding against the accused; 3. Where the discretion exercised by the Magistrate in issuing process is capricious and arbitrary having been based either on no evidence or on materials which are wholly irrelevant or inadmissible; and 4. Where the complaint suffers from fundamental legal defects, such as, want of sanction, or absence of a complaint by legally competent authority and the like.
