If you make any more false statements, we will take it seriously. It can invite contempt action against you. Keep in mind that you are representing a retired judge of a high court,&#8221; the bench said to Nedumpara.<\/p>\n<p>The lawyer, thereafter, argued that the order of May 9 against Karnan holding him guilty of contempt of the apex court was a &#8220;nullity&#8221; in law as it was passed &#8220;without jurisdiction&#8221; and &#8220;authority of the law&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The apex court by its May 9 order had also sentenced Karnan to six months in jail.<\/p>\n<p>Nedumpara said the judge was appointed by the President and could only be removed by Parliament.<\/p>\n<p>However, the May 9 order by a seven-judge apex court bench headed by Chief Justice of India J S Khehar &#8220;resulted in his (Karnan) removal from office for all practical purposes&#8221;, the lawyer argued.<\/p>\n<p>He said that the issues raised in the petition required consideration and therefore, notice be issued inviting the reply of the other side.<\/p>\n<p>The bench, however, disagreed with this argument and said, &#8220;You have not stated anything for issuance of notice.&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from challenging the constitutionality of the Contempt of Courts Act, the plea has sought a declaration from the high court that the apex court&#8217;s May 9 order and further proceedings under it were &#8220;unconstitutional and void&#8221; as principles of natural justice were allegedly not followed.<\/p>\n<p>The plea has also challenged certain rules of the apex court which required that petitions in the Supreme Court be only filed through an advocate-on-record.<\/p>\n<p>( Source &#8211; PTI )<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Delhi High Court today asked the Centre to place on record all the orders passed by the Supreme Court in the contempt case against the jailed ex- Calcutta HC judge C S Karnan who has challenged the constitutionality of the Contempt of Courts Act.
