The Appellate Division has adjourned the hearing of an appeal until 1 September that challenges a High Court ruling which directed the establishment of a separate and independent secretariat for the Supreme Court within three months.
The order was issued today (16 June) by the Appellate Division, led by the chief justice, following an application filed by the state.
Earlier, on 9 June, the Appellate Division stayed the High Court's judgment that had instructed the government to create an independent secretariat for the Supreme Court.
