casestatus.in Summary

Summary: The Supreme Court disposed of petitions filed by the Bar Council of India regarding a viral incident from the Andhra Pradesh High Court (May 6, 2026) where a judge allegedly ordered a young advocate into judicial custody. After receiving the AP High Court Chief Justice's report, the Court found the matter was amicably resolved between parties, with no deliberate misconduct by the counsel. The Court issued broad directions for all High Courts to establish Grievance Redressal Committees at court, district, and taluka levels with Bar representation, and stressed that the judiciary must nurture young lawyers with patience and compassion.
