(20) CONDUCT OF SUBORDINATE COURT STAFF
C.L. No. C.V. 1492/1993 dated 12th August, 1993
No business avocation or profession by subordinate Court staff.
It has been brought to the notice of the Court that some members of the staff of the
subordinate courts engage themselves, directly or indirectly in trade or business either
individually or collectively or undertake another employment. This is specifically
prohibited by Rule 15 of the U. P. Government Servant Conduct Rules, 1956.
I am, therefore, to say that attention of the staff be drawn to this Rule and any
violation of this by any member of the staff be suitably dealt with.
C.L. No. 120/Admn. (D) dated 23rd November, 1994
Concerning possession of identity cards by the employees of Subordinate Courts as
well as clerks of Advocates.
I am directed by the Court to say that all employees of District Courts should have
identity cards with their photographs and that they be displayed on their coat or shirt as
the case may be.
I am further directed to say that all clerks of Advocates should also display their
identity cards with photographs attested by the Chief Judicial Magistrate or by any other
Judicial Officer specifically nominated for this purpose by you.
C.L. No. 32 / 98 dated Allahabad 20th August, 1998
Issue of Identity Cards to Civil Couits‟staff and to Advocates' Clerks
It .has come to the notice of the Court that persons not on the roll of the subordinate
courts are found handling the judicial records. Such situation can not be permitted to
continue for long. The matter came for consideration in the Administrative Conference
held recently. The Hon‟ble Court has taken a decision for enforcing better behaviour
from the civil courts staff all the employees of the subordinate courts should bear badges
indicating their names. The Advocates‟ clerks must have an Identity Card with
photograph duly stamped and signed by the District Judge or his nominee. The
Advocates‟ clerks, not possessing the Identity Cards be not permitted to enter the offices
of the subordinate courts.
I am, therefore, directed to communicate that the aforesaid directions of the
Hon‟ble Court may be brought to the notice of all concerned and be strictly complied
with.
