Registry Cannot Delete Cases from Cause List Without Specific Order: Supreme Court

The Supreme Court ruled that the Registry has no authority to delete a case from the cause list unless explicitly directed by the concerned bench or the Chief Justice of India. 

The Court emphasized that even non-service of notice of alternate arrangements does not justify such deletions.

This judgment came after the Registry removed a case initially listed on January 26, 2025, citing unserved notice.

The Court clarified that the Registry must inform judges in advance if a valid deletion is necessary.

The matter is now listed for hearing on February 24, 2025.
