    Court Decision Summary: The High Court of Chhattisgarh dismissed three consolidated writ petitions challenging a recruitment process for Family Court positions (WPS Nos. 1363/2023, 2468/2023, 2505/2023). The court held that while the examination questions were reduced from 50 to 25, the total marks remained at 100—an administrative modification uniformly applied to all candidates that did not cause prejudice. The court ruled that candidates who voluntarily participate in a selection process without objection cannot subsequently challenge it after failure, invoking the principles of waiver and estoppel. Additionally, the petitions were defective for failing to implead selected candidates as necessary parties, a fatal procedural flaw. The court found no violation of statutory rules or mala fides warranting judicial intervention. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
