STATE OF U.P. vs MANISHA DWIVEDI

The Supreme Court dismissed the special leave petitions against the High Court's interlocutory order dated 12.1.2000, citing a delay of over a year in filing the petitions which was unexplained. The Court emphasized that it typically does not exercise jurisdiction under Article 136 for interlocutory orders unless special circumstances exist to prevent manifest injustice, which were not found in this case. Consequently, the petitions were dismissed without consideration of merits.
