CJI Chandrachud says he plans to use technology to reduce human interface in listing cases

Speaking at a felicitation by the Supreme Court Bar Association, Chief Justice of India D.Y. Chandrachud said he wants to use technology in the listing of cases, so that listing happens uniformly no matter who the Chief Justice is.

The remarks followed criticism by judges of the Supreme Court registry for not listing matters that were ready. The CJI said a standard operating procedure was being prepared, and that the registry had been told to give automatic listing dates based on the day a petition is filed.
