New Delhi, May 16: A bench of Chief Justice B R Gavai, Justices Augustine George Masih and K Vinod Chandran in Supreme Court directed all high courts to either frame or amend rules on the functioning of court managers and submit it to the respective states for approval within three months.
The concept of court managers was first proposed by the Thirteenth Finance Commission (2010-2015) with the aim of providing assistance to judges in performing their administrative duties.
Court managers were to be appointed in both district courts and high courts.
