The Calcutta Weekly Notes May 17 1948

The Plaintiff whose decree had been set aside moved the Dacca High Court contending that the Court had no longer any power to do so although it was “ the Court by which the decree was passed.“ The learned Judges agreed but said that they could not help the Petitioner. [...] It is in the natural course of things however that the old dispensation would change—and thank Hpavens it has changed or more correctly we have now the power to change what was the shape of things before August 15 1947 if only we have the wish to do so. [...] We wish those of our friends who disapprove of the High Court’s summer vacation see this aspect of the matter and gracefully reconcile theselves to the first symptoms of a new dipensation for our country and our people. [...] One High Court for the U. P. From July 26 the United Provinces will have only one High Court on account of the merging of the Oudh Chief Court which had been functioning for many years in the Allahabad High Court. [...] All applications whther ex parte or by summons or on notice of motion must be listed and may be made only by leave or under the directions of the Hon’ble Judge to be obtained on written application to be sent to the Assistant Rgistrar on duty as Court Officer and if sanctioned to the Board Maker at least two days before the date on which the application is to be made.
