Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal of a District and Sessions Judge regarding the denial of extension of service beyond 58 years by the Patna High Court. The Court held that the decision of the Full Court not to extend service was valid and that the appellant's claims of bias and misrepresentation were unsubstantiated. The Court ultimately dismissed the Special Leave Petition, affirming the Division Bench's ruling that upheld the dismissal of the writ petition.
