Court or by a District or Civil Judge. The copy will be sent through the District Judge
under whom the officer may be serving at the time.
C.L.No.47/VIII-233 dated 4th April, 1952
A register in the form appended to the letter noted in the bloc should be
maintained in all appellate criminal courts. The Munsarim should occasionally check this
register to ensure that copies of judgments are actually certified to trial courts without
avoidable delay.

In Panchayat revisions
G.L.No.2/VIII-f-110 dated 4th February, 1952

Magistrates should attach sufficient importance to a thorough sifting of the points
urged before them in the revisions filed on behalf of persons affected by orders of the
Panchayati Adalat. In the interest of the successful working of the Panchayati Adalats, it
is essential that they should give more detailed reasons in their orders or judgments. If
they were to take pains over their judgments or orders the work of the High Court, too,
would be facilitated.
C.L.No.49/VI-f-111 dated 4th June, 1965

A full copy of the order of transfer passed under section 85 of the Panchayati Raj
Act should invariably be sent to the Nyaya Panchayat concerned for its benefit.
(vii)
 Correct citations
C.L.No.36/IV-h-35 dated 11th April, 1956 read with
C.L.No.105/IVh-35 dated 3rd December, 1956

Judicial Officers should give correct citations of reported cases in their judgments.
The proper way to do this is to state the names of parties first followed by the citation
within brackets as indicated below:

―[State of Bombay v. United Motors; (1955) S.C.R. 1069]‖
(viii) Aspersions against witnesses
G.L.No. 13/67-4 dated 4th April, 1932

The character of a witness is at times assailed and aspersions made against him by
courts in their judgments without allowing an opportunity to the witnesses concerned to
meet and explain what is in the judge's mind against him. The courts at times mislead
themselves by omitting to ask witnesses questions on what they deem to be matters of
importance and then make observations on such matters in the judgment. It is the duty of
a judge not to leave such questions in the air and then introduce them suddenly into his
judgment.

Relevant extracts from certain judgments bearing on this matter will be found
attached to the General Letter.
