Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court disposed of multiple transfer cases concerning various petitions related to the service conditions of High Court judges. The Court found that many of the prayers, including those for travel allowances, house rent allowances, and salary revisions, had become infructuous or were not justifiable under the existing legal framework, specifically referencing the Conditions of Service of the Judges Act. The Court held that the existing rules adequately govern the service conditions of judges, leading to the dismissal of the petitions without further consideration.
