This book was released on 2015-09-29 with total page 511 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We, the people of India, have adopted a written Constitution which has created an independent judiciary having the power of judicial review. While exercising this power, the judiciary not only acts as a guardian of the Constitution and its values, but also protects us from illegality, arbitrariness, malafides and corruption of other organs of the State. Therefore, in order to perform these functions the judiciary in India, since the adoption of the Constitution has been enjoying the highest degree of independence and has been held least accountable. This system has been adopted in the Constitution with the objective to achieve the concept of Justice as enshrined in the Preamble. It is pertinent to note that initially the judiciary had responded appropriately to achieve this object but, in due course of time, the Indian Judiciary under the guise of judicial activism, has shifted its focus in addition to delivering Justice, to governing the nation and its policies.

This book was released on 2017-03-21 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Judicial Appointments Commission (NJAC) judgment, on the appointment of judges to the Supreme Court, has been the subject of a deeply polarized debate in the public sphere and academia. This volume analyses the NJAC judgment, and provides a rich context to it, in terms of philosophical, comparative, and constitutional issues that underpin it. The work traces the history of judicial appointments in India; examines the constitutional principles behind selecting judges and their application in the NJAC judgment; and comparatively looks at the judicial appointments process in six select countries—United Kingdom, South Africa, Canada, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Nepal—enquiring into what makes a good judge and an effective appointments process. With wide-ranging essays by leading lawyers, political scientists, and academics from India and abroad, the volume is a deep dive into the constitutional concepts of judicial independence and separation of powers as discussed in the NJAC judgment.

Book Synopsis A Critical Analysis of Judicial Appointments in India (with respect to Higher Judiciary) by : Sanjit Kumar Naskar
Download or read book A Critical Analysis of Judicial Appointments in India (with respect to Higher Judiciary) written by Sanjit Kumar Naskar and published by Blue Rose Publishers. This book was released on 2023-05-10 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Author Sanjit Kumar Naskar in this book titled A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF JUDICIAL APPOINTMENTS IN INDIA has referred a wide range of resources viz. books, online law journals, articles from authoritative online resources. Firstly, the Author would review the book written by Prof. Madhav Godbole. In his book titled 'The Judiciary and Governance in India', he advocates for the Judicial Accountability in the higher judiciary and the need for such judicial accountability in India. However, Prof. Madhav Godbole though touched the aspect of accountability of lower judiciary in the form of transfers made by the higher judiciary and also had discussed the politicization of the judiciary in this regard, he completely ignores the transparency in the appointment process regarding the lower judiciary. Secondly, another important literary source which the Author has referred is regarding the Phd.thesis by Prof. V.R. Jayadevan entitled 'Judicial Creativity in Constitutional Interpretation'. The Author has referred this thesis in light of explaining the historical background of system of appointments of judges in the higher judiciary as well as to support the arguments being raised by the Author in relation to the selection of judges and their condition of services in the higher judiciary. Although the research work done by Prof. Jayadevan is detail oriented and well established and argumentative, still the Author finds the holding of Prof. Jayadevan regarding the adoption of seniority rule in the matter of the appointment of CJI in India not proper and has referred the argument of Justice Katju (Refer Chapter II of Dissertation) in order to counter the argument put forward by Prof. Jayadevan in his work. Thirdly, another major literary resource referred by the Author in the current dissertation is of the article 'The NJAC Act - Is it the perfect remedy?' written by Vikram Mishra and Ananth Balaji. In their article, the writers have focused on the NJAC Act, 2014 and analyzed the Act in a critical manner. The Author while critically analyzing the NJAC, Act, 2014 in the Chapter - III of the dissertation has referred to this article and supported his arguments based on the arguments proposed by the writers in the abovementioned article. Though, this article is argumentative and represents the shortcomings of the NJAC Act, 2014 in a plain and language which is easily comprehensible yet this article fails to appreciate the salient features of the NJAC Act, 2014. Although it explains in a precise manner the shift from the collegium system of selection of judges in the higher judiciary to system of appointment of judges in the higher judiciary by the commission established under the NJAC Act, 2014. Lastly, the Author has referred the work of Prof. Tom S. Clark in his book titled 'The Limits of Judicial Independence' which deals with the limits of judicial independence where the author holds that in order to see whether the judiciary is independent or not depends upon the judicial behaviour of the judges of a particular legal system. Although the judicial behaviour holds the key to bring desirable results in the legal system of a particular country still the Author feels that somewhere down the line Prof. Tom S. Clark is not able to justify the significance of the role of judicial behaviour as an additional criteria of selection of judges in the higher judiciary besides measuring the judicial independence of a particular legal system.

Book Synopsis Evolution of Indian Judiciary by : Dr Lm Singhvi
Download or read book Evolution of Indian Judiciary written by Dr Lm Singhvi and published by Prabhat Prakashan. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Judicial institutions evolved in India in the context of India’s social, economic and political conditions and because of the reception of legal concepts and institutions known to English and Scottish judges, lawyers and administrators. Modern Indian judiciary bears the hallmarks of its genesis and evolution during the British rule but it has progressively gone for beyond the colonial confines after the republican Constitution came into force. The theme of fundamental Rights and the role of the Supreme Court and the High Courts as vigilant custodians of fundamental rights are at the heart of India’s constitutional democracy. We owe a deep debt of gratitude to our apex judicature, the higher judiciary and the country’s bar in the evolution of the common law of the Constitution. It constitutes by common consent a remarkable chapter in our national life. H v H The Constitution of India is not the last word in human wisdom, but it was certainly a glorious achievement of national consensus and national commitment. The higher Indian judiciary can be said to have broadly fulfilled its constitutional ethos. There have been aberrations, notably during the Emergency and in some cases, of overstating and unduly enlarging the scope of judicial power. More seriously, there are grave and growing problems of inefficient case management, arrears, delays, corruption and incompetence. Those issues have to be addressed urgently, effectively and comprehensively if the Indian judiciary is to emerge as a fit instrument for Rule of Law for the teeming millions in the largest democracy in the world and if the Indian judiciary is to flourish in the twenty-first century holding its head high as an institution of freedom, liberty and balance, with a commitment to the constitutional goals and aspirations of We the People of India.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2015 in the subject Law - Public Law / Constitutional Law / Basic Rights, language: English, abstract: The process of appointment of judges is being made through the "collegium system," which doesn't find mention in the Constitution of India, although it was created with the justification to insulate the judiciary from executive interference. But in reality, this system may be called as "judges appointing themselves." The Supreme Court in various cases, while interpreting the meaning of 124 (2) and 217 (1) of the Constitution and "consultation" with Chief Justice of India and other judges, wrongly held that there should be collegium of judges in appointment process. Hence, the process is phasing through a period, where it is concerned about sheering away from its basic constitutional principles, which though, are garnering massive issues in front of the country. This Collegium system is an opaque and non accountable system as the judges are not responsible for giving reason for the appointment of a particular person. At the same time, there is no transparency in the system which results in a "democratic deficit." If executives are made the part of Judicial Appointment Panel for appointing judges, it will enable equal participation of judiciary and executive, make the system of appointment more accountable and thereby increase the confidence of the public in the institution. The words of the Judicial Appointments Commission Bill (JAC), 2013 are clear enough to understand that the motive of the legislature was only to ensure greater transparency in the Indian judiciary. The paper will try to focus on how the collegium system of appointing judges has given rise to the issue of favouritism, biasness and sycophancy. The authors will also try to interpret the concept of 'Basic Structure Doctrine' through various case-laws so as to establish a balance between judicial independence and judicial accountability. Furthermore, the authors will suggest so

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume challenges the conventional wisdom about judicial independence in China and its relationship to economic growth, rule of law, human rights protection, and democracy. The volume adopts an interdisciplinary approach that places China's judicial reforms and the struggle to enhance the professionalism, authority, and independence of the judiciary within a broader comparative and developmental framework. Contributors debate the merits of international best practices and their applicability to China; provide new theoretical perspectives and empirical studies; and discuss civil, criminal, and administrative cases in urban and rural courts. This volume contributes to several fields, including law and development and the promotion of rule of law and good governance, globalization studies, neo-institutionalism and studies of the judiciary, the emerging literature on judicial reforms in authoritarian regimes, Asian legal studies, and comparative law more generally.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook looks at the main ethical questions that confront the criminal justice system - legislature, law enforcement, courts, and corrections - and those who work within that system, especially police officers, prosecutors, defence lawyers, judges, juries, and prison officers. John Kleinig sets the issues in the context of a liberal democratic society and its ethical and legislative underpinnings, and illustrates them with a wide and international range of real-life case studies. Topics covered include discretion, capital punishment, terrorism, restorative justice, and re-entry. Kleinig's discussion is both philosophically acute and grounded in institutional realities, and will enable students to engage productively with the ethical questions which they encounter both now and in the future - whether as criminal justice professionals or as reflective citizens.
