SUBMISSION OF PROCEEDINGS IN CAPITAL CASES
C.L. No. 47 dated 23rd April, 1958

Under rule 67 of the General Rules (Criminal), 1957, the Sessions Court is
required to submit its proceedings to the High Court at the latest on the fourth day after
the sentence of death has been pronounced.
 All the Sessions Judges should, therefore, submit the proceedings along with the
complete record of the case on fourth day at the latest.
C.L. No. 47/VIIb-43/Admn. (G) dated 8th May, 1978
A death case is to be listed for hearing within 30 days of receipt of reference from
the District and Sessions Judges for confirmation of death sentence. The District Judges
should therefore see to it personally that the record of a death case is transmitted to the
Court along with the reference for confirmation of death sentence without any delay. To
avoid delay in transit, the record of a death case should invariably be sent by registered
parcel and not by R.R.
C. L. No. 26/ 2007/ Criminal Sec. Dated: 25.5.2007
Upon a careful consideration of the matter Hon'ble Court has taken a decision
that the paper books in the criminal cases be prepared with adequate copies wherever
appeals are admitted. In case where the trial resulted in the conviction, the paper books be
prepared immediately after the decision is rendered. As far as those cases where the
accused are acquitted in the trial court, paper books will be prepared immediately on
receiving notice of admission from the High Court.

I am therefore, to request you to kindly apprise the contents of the circular letter
to the notice of all judicial Officers in the Judgeship under your supervision and control
for their information, guidance and strict compliance of Court's direction as above.
C. L. No. -28/2007 : Dated : 29 June, 2007

It has come to the notice of Hon'ble Court that the Presiding Officers of the
Courts working on the Criminal Side, while delivering judgments/Orders, in the criminal
matters are often not citing particulars such as name of the Police Station, District, Crime
Number and Sections of the case at the beginning of the judgement at the top of the right
side of the page, which has resulted in tremendous difficulty for Hon'ble Court in
appreciation at the appellate level.
Therefore, I am directed to say that, the Hon'ble Court has resolved that from now
onwards all the judgments In criminal matters shall bear the name of the Police Station
and the District to which the case belongs and also the relevant Sections and the crime
number at the top of the page on the right side without fail. Further the issuing authority
shall ensure before issuing the certified copy of the Judgement/Order that the same bears
above particulars.
