'India's Legal System' is like "Judgement Factory" and "Case Law Diarrohoea"- Said Mr. Fali S.Nariman

'India's Legal System' is like "Judgement Factory" and "Case Law Diarrohoea"- Said Mr. Fali S.Nariman, the well known jurist.

Well, these are quite strong words used by a great Jurist.

Supreme Court referred and quoted his words in Case of Richpal Singh V/s Ghasi in para 50 of judgement dated 4 July,2014 in Criminal Appeal No.341 of 2005 ( Judgement Available on official website of Supreme Court)

After quoting the Jurist, the Supreme Court said,

" We need to put our heads together and follow some sage advice and take some remedial action before justice delivery system gets timed out".

Well, that is it.

I think that the issue requires reflections by both the lawyers and the judges.
