SHIVPRASAD vs STATE OF M.P — Crl.A. No. 111/2007

Summary: On 25 January 2007, the Supreme Court heard Shivprasad's special leave petition against the High Court of M.P.'s judgment from September 2005. The Court granted special leave and allowed the appeal, finding that the High Court improperly disposed of the original appeal without providing legal representation to the unrepresented appellant. The Court set aside the High Court judgment and remitted the matter for fresh disposal, directing the High Court to appoint an Amicus Curiae or refer the case to the Legal Aid Committee if the appellant remains unrepresented.
