casestatus.in Summary

Summary: C.A. No. 2470/2005 — Lt. Governor v. Arun Karmakar The Supreme Court allowed the Lt. Governor's appeal and set aside the High Court's order dated 29.09.2003, holding that the High Court erred in directing re-initiation of disciplinary proceedings against respondent Arun Karmakar (a dismissed police constable) based on his subsequent criminal acquittal. The Court ruled that criminal trials and departmental proceedings are independent with different standards of proof, and that the respondent's dismissal order from 1992—which attained finality when he failed to appeal the CAT's 1996 dismissal—could not be reopened merely because he was later acquitted in the criminal case. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
