Case lottery refers to the practice where legal cases are randomly assigned to judges in Indian courts. This system is designed to ensure fairness and prevent any potential bias or manipulation in case allocation.
In India, the case lottery system is implemented in various high courts and district courts across the country. When a new case is filed, it is randomly assigned to a judge through a computerized or manual lottery system. This prevents litigants from choosing specific judges who might be more favorable to their case.
The Indian judiciary has adopted this practice to maintain transparency and impartiality in the legal process. Different states have implemented variations of the case lottery system, with some using automated software while others maintain traditional manual methods.
This system helps in proper distribution of workload among judges and ensures that no single judge is overloaded with cases while others have lighter schedules. It also prevents forum shopping and maintains public confidence in the judicial system. |
