Vijay Kumar Mishra And Anr vs High Court Of Judicature At Patna To And ...

The Supreme Court examined the interpretation of Article 233(2) of the Constitution of India, which restricts members of the Judicial Service from participating in the selection process for the post of District Judge Entry Level. The Court held that the High Court's refusal to allow the petitioners to appear for the interview was justified, as they had joined the Subordinate Judicial Service before the interview date, thus disqualifying them under Article 233(2). The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision.
