The Madras High Court recently directed its Registrar General to render an explanation as to how a judge can handle a single typed set (single volume) containing 800 pages.
Justice R Subramanian sought an affidavit in this regard after it was informed that the Registry was insisting on filing single volume, even if the pages were in excess.
A single volume, containing as many as 800 pages, had reached Justice Subramanian.
When the Judge asked the counsels how he was supposed to handle such a large volume, in response, Advocate N Jothi, appearing for the petitioner, informed the court that the same was so submitted on insistence from the Registry.
It is then, that the court sought response from the registry.
The Registry is directed to place the papers before the Registrar General of this Court and he is required to file an affidavit as to how a Judge is expected to handle a single typed set containing 800 pages. Such an affidavit shall be filed by 13.09.2022.
