'How dare you..?': CJI Chandrachud raps lawyer in Supreme Court
New Delhi/IBNS: Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud on Thursday rapped a lawyer in the Supreme Court after the latter told the CJI that he cross-checked the details of the order with the courtmaster, media reports said.
In a strong reply, CJI Chandrachud said as quoted by NDTV, "How dare you ask the court master what I dictated in the court? Tomorrow you will come to my house and ask the personal secretary what I am doing. Lawyers have lost all sense or what."
"Don't try these funny tricks again, these are my last days in the court," he added, reminding the lawyer that he is still the CJI "though for a short time".
CJI Chandrachud will retire on November 10.
'This is not a coffee shop': CJI blasts lawyer
Days ago, CJI Chandrachud slammed a lawyer who used the informal word "yeah" in front of the CJI during a court hearing.
In the court hearing, the lawyer referred to a 2018 petition where he had added former CJI Ranjan Gogoi as a respondent.
"But is it an Article 32 plea? how can you file a PIL with a judge as a respondent," CJI Chandrachud asked the lawyer as quoted by NDTV.
Responding to the CJI, the lawyer said, "Yeah, yeah the then CJI Ranjan Gogoi... I was asked to file a curative..."
CJI Chandrachud immediately cut him off and said, "This is not a coffee shop! What is this yeah yeah. I am very allergic to this yeah yeah. This cannot be allowed."
