STATE OF ORISSA vs SANGRAM KESHARI MISRA

The Supreme Court addressed the legality of a charge memorandum issued against an IAS officer under Rule 3 of the ASI (Conduct) Rules, 1968, for impersonation and misconduct. The Court held that the issuance of a corrigendum during the pendency of an interim stay order constituted a violation of the stay, thereby interfering with the administration of justice. The Court ultimately quashed the charge memorandum and the corrigendum, emphasizing the importance of adhering to judicial orders.
