We observe a tendency on part of Members of Bar to rely upon a large number of decisions, whether relevant or irrelevant. Multiple decisions are cited on same proposition of law. This makes hearing time-consuming. Courts permit written submissions. Very long written submissions come on record. A high monetary stake should not result in unnecessarily long oral submissions or bulky written submissions. There is a need to impose limits. Courts should be in a position to also devote sufficient time to a common man. What we have expressed is a matter of serious concern and introspection for everyone.
