SC notifies policy for same-day fixation of delisted cases

The policy represents commitment of the Supreme Court to strengthen case management

ISLAMABAD – In order to ensure greater facilitation for litigants and improved efficiency in the fixation and hearing of cases, the Supreme Court has notified policy for same-day fixation of delisted cases.

Through a circular, it has been notified that henceforth, whenever cases are required to be delisted due to non-availability of requisite bench or judge, such cases shall, so far as practicable, be redistributed among available benches for hearing on the same day after 11:30 am.

Where, however, redistribution on the same day is not practicable, the cases shall be delisted and automatically fixed for hearing in the following week.
