1) The adjournments are asked for and granted indiscriminately, with a view to drag on the case and defeat the cause of justice. The grant of adjournment should be done only in exceptionable cases with proper reasons. If any party to the dispute is seen to be dragging on the case, the judgement should be given against him as he had obstructed to the due process of law.
2) Permission should not be given for every litigant to appeal against the verdict in superior courts. It should be permitted only where there is adequate reasons justifying appeal.
3) There should be accountability fixed on lawyers as well as the judiciary for a time bound conclusion of cases.
4) If there are corruption charges against the judiciary, whether lower or higher, it should be gone into immediately and a foolproof mechanism should be evolved to deal with it.
5) If any lawyer is found to adopting obstructive methods aimed at disrupting the due process of law, he should be warned sternly and if no improvement is seen, he should be debarred form the profession for good. This will go a long way in expediting the cases.
6) The Government is seen to be most frequent litigant. While the other side represented by the ordinary citizens are fighting the legal hurdles at their own cost, the Government is doing it at the tax payer's money. The decision to file a case or an appeal should therefore be kept at a fairly senior level, higher than the officers who were in the first place causative for the muddle they are fighting. more
