Within hours of taking over, the new Chief Justice of India U U Lalit called a meeting of the ‘full court’ where the judges discussed how to deal with issues relating to listing and backlog of cases.
About:
A full court meeting literally means one which is attended by all the judges of the court.
When is it held? There are no written rules dealing with this.
As per convention, full-court meetings are called by the Chief Justice of India to discuss issues of importance to the judiciary. The senior designations of practising advocates in the Supreme Court and high courts are also decided during the full court meetings.
As a full court meeting is convened at the discretion of the Chief Justice of India, it does not follow any particular calendar.
