Case Summary: S. Jamaldeen v. High Court of Madras (1997) Decision: The Supreme Court allowed the appeals and set aside the High Court's seniority list, ruling that direct recruits appointed on 3.11.1988 cannot be ranked above officers who became District Munsifs on 6.10.1988 through service integration. The Court held that under Rules 2(b) and 2(10), "appointment to service" occurs only when an officer first discharges duties, making the direct recruits junior to integrated officers despite earlier selection dates.
