Supreme Court questions ‘For Dismissal’ tag in Andhra Pradesh HC cause list
The Supreme Court has raised concerns over the Andhra Pradesh High Court’s practice of marking a criminal case as "For Dismissal" in its cause list before an order is issued. The Court said that such a caption implies the outcome was decided in advance, undermining the fairness of the proceedings. This move signals a push for transparency and adherence to norms in the judiciary.
