The lot has not yet been filled up. So you can try next time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The court is already hearing pleas filed by Delhi-based lawyer Luthra and Mumbai-based lawyer, Mathews J Nedumpara, who have also sought directions restraining the collegium from recommending appointments to the higher judiciary and the government from acting on the recommendations till the system is &#8220;defect-free and fool-proof&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, another petition by advocate V P Tripathi on same grounds was today mentioned before a bench of Justices B D Ahmed and Sanjeev Sachdeva who refused to list the matter for today saying there is &#8220;no urgency and there are already petitions challenging the recommendations. So your petitions too will come in the due course&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The high court had yesterday refrained from passing any interim stay order on their pleas challenging the collegium&#8217;s recommendation and after a brief hearing of arguments it had adjourned the matter for tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>The four judges to be sworn in are Justice A M Khanwilkar of Madhya Pradesh High Court, Justice D Y Chandrachud of Allahabad High Court, Justice Ashok Bhushanof Kerala High Court and senior lawyer and former Additional Solicitor General L Nageshwar Rao to the Supreme Court.
