Week of 24 May 2026

This week predates the archive, and was rebuilt afterwards from the legal press's own record — the headlines, dates and outlets are theirs and unaltered, but nobody was watching that week as it happened. Every entry links to the report it came from.

The Supreme Court's decision that police cannot be ordered to file chargesheet after closure report resonated across multiple cases, creating a week focused on criminal procedure limitations. The Kerala High Court's two-week deadline for resolving the Malayodamthuruthu eviction issue demonstrated judicial urgency in land disputes. Meanwhile, the Allahabad High Court's quashing of a conspiracy FIR against prosecutors highlighted concerns about professional persecution, while the NCLAT's directive to Modi Lifecare to pay ₹63 lakh clarified technical guidance agreements. The Supreme Court also addressed judicial delays by issuing guidelines to high courts for reserved judgments and discussed tax investigations post-Radhika Agarwal case alongside granting relief to Reliance in the RPL trades case.
