Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed I.A. No. 15-16 of 2007, clarifying that such applications for clarification and direction are misconceived after a case has been finally disposed of. The Court emphasized that once a case is concluded, it becomes functus officio, and I.A.s are only maintainable for clerical or accidental corrections. The Court ordered the Contempt Petitions to be listed after six months, reinforcing the procedural limits on post-disposal applications.
