Judicial officer raising his voice at judges is gross indiscipline, says Supreme Court
India’s Supreme Court described a Maharashtra judicial officer’s outburst at judges as severe misconduct while hearing his challenge to a Bombay High Court order that began contempt proceedings. The officer, Dilip S. Ghumare, faces allegations of an “inexcusable act with impunity” committed openly in court, prompting the apex court’s rebuke of his behavior and potential disciplinary action.
