Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the procedural issues arising from the Special Courts (Trial of Offences Relating to Transactions in Securities) Act, 1992, particularly regarding the transfer of cases between judges. The Court held that the Bombay High Court's directive to have the transfer application heard by the same judge was appropriate, emphasizing the need for judicial efficiency and continuity in complex cases. The Court upheld the High Court's orders dated 16th and 19th April 2001, affirming the legitimacy of the Special Court's jurisdiction under the Act.
