GOI to file Reply on CAT Chairperson appointment in Karnataka High Court

Dec 3: The PIL regarding the non appointment of the Chair person for Cyber Appellate Tribunal (CAT), in New Delhi was heard in Karnataka High Court today. The PIL filed by an advocate Sri Chaitanya has alleged that the non appointment of a chair person to CAT has placed several Bank fraud victims at a disadvantage since their cases are held up without judicial scrutiny since June 2011 and requested the Judiciary to direct the Government to take necessary action. The counsel for the GOI has requested for 6 week’s time for filing the reply from the Government side.
