Chief Justice Gita Mittal will now commence her address.

#Farewell #JammuAndKashmir #HighCourt
Justice Mittal: Lincoln once said that the best thing about the future was that it came one day at a time. The day has come. I had no expectations that a person like me could even be considered for Judgeship. It was a cold morning of December when I was given this opportunity.
Justice Mittal: When God closes one door, he opens palace doors for you; I truly believe that. I’m sure another door will open for me tomorrow.

#Farewell #JammuAndKashmir #HighCourt
Justice Mittal: I was told that when I came to the J&K HC, I was making history and breaking a glass ceiling. I believe glass ceilings are broken when you make an impact, when you help people and you drive for charge. Which is why I know I have miles to go before I speak.
Justice Mittal acknowledges and thanks her brother and sister judges for always aiding her to facilitate changes in the Court’s functionality, and to never complete of fatigue despite the trying times.

#Farewell #JammuAndKashmir #HighCourt
Chief Justice Mittal also acknowledges the commitment and aid of all the employees of the J&K High Court.

“In my anxiety and eagerness to do as much as I could in the little time I had, I drove everyone to their limits. I thank them for persevering”.
CJ Mittal: I have personally grown leaps and bounds in the time I’ve been here. I am deeply grateful for all your affection and untimely support.

#Farewell #JammuAndKashmir #HighCourt
CJ Mittal lists attributes of her brother and sister Judges at the High Court which she states she will ardently miss as she demits the office.

#Farewell #JammuAndKashmir #HighCourt
CJ Mittal: No success or material achievements is worthwhile until it achieves progress and development in the country.

#Farewell #JammuAndKashmir #HighCourt
CJ Mittal echoes the thoughts of Douglas McArthur on how a true leader must inculcate integrity and honesty in his actions.

#Farewell #JammuAndKashmir #HighCourt
On that note, the Full Court reference comes to an end.

TATA Sons v Cyrus Mistry

Supreme Court bench led by Chief Justice of India assembles to hear the appeals filed by Tata Sons Pvt Ltd against the NCLAT direction to reinstate Cyrus Mistry as Company Chairman.


Senior Advocate Harish Salve starts submissions for Tata Sons.

@RNTata2000 @TataCompanies

Salve : This(Chairmanship) is not a post as understood in service law. In Company Law, this is designation.

#TatasCyrusMistryDispute

Salve : Tata Sons Ltd is a company of considerable vintage. It was created in 1917.

CJI : Was it a public limited company?

Salve : Never. It has always been a private company.

#TataSons
#CyrusMistry

Salve : The curious thing which has happened in the case is that there is a provision in Tata Son's Articles which restricts the transfer of shares. It also has a remarkable feature that the Board could direct a shareholder to sell shares.

Supreme Court takes up the petitions challenging the constitutionality of farmers laws.


Adv P Wilson @PWilsonDMK says he is appearing in one of the petitions challenging the Acts.

CJI : All the advocates who appeared yesterday(in PILs against farmers protests) are not seen today except for Mr. Dushyant Tiwari

Dushyant Tiwari : I have impleaded the farmers unions.

Solicitor General : There is a confusion. The first item is the petitions challenging the validity of laws.

CJI : We will not decide the validity of the laws today. The first and the only thing we will decide today is regarding the farmers protest and the fundamental right of citizens to move. The question of validity of laws can wait.

CJI : We will hear Mr. Salve, Mr. Parihar and other petitioners (in PILs against farmers protest)

On a petition against the withdrawal ceiling of Rs. 5 lakh from deposits in the PMC Bank, @RBI submits yet again that the ceiling has already been raised from Rs. 1 lakh to Rs. 5 lakhs but allowing further withdrawals will result in "a run on the Bank."

The petitioner cites various instances of depositors in desperate need of funds suffering due to the withdrawal ceiling.

Chief Justice DN Patel had shown an inclination towards adjourning the matter, however, the petitioner is emphasizing his case through various factual instances.

CJ: If you raise these grounds, then everybody is in need of money. Nobody is saying that you don't have the need for the money. But please understand what the counsel for @RBI is saying, that if this is allowed, then many people may not get any money.

CJ: Somebody may have put their retirement money, someone may have put some other funds, but you are a counsel, and not a petitioner, kindly understand what the @RBI is pleading.

How about a brief refresher on federal bail, since everyone's got opinions on it this week? Yes?

Okay, here we go. In federal criminal cases, bail is governed by the Bail Reform

/2 Under the Bail Reform Act, a defendant MUST BE RELEASED ON BAIL unless the judicial officer (usually a federal magistrate judge) finds that no condition or combination of conditions will reasonably assure (1) them appearing for trial or (2) the safety of the community.

/3 It's the burden of the government -- the federal prosecutor - to PROVE by CLEAR AND CONVINCING EVIDENCE that the danger element applies, and no conditions can reasonably control it, if the government wants someone detained without bail. Preponderance burden for flight risk.

/4 HOWEVER there are certain statutory categories of crimes where there is a rebuttable presumption that no conditions will prevent flight or danger -- in other words, for those crimes, the burden shifts to the defendant.

/5 The Federal Rules of Evidence don't govern detention hearings and they can and do proceed by "proffer" -- that is, the government saying what they will prove if necessary.

A Warning:

The 'Freeports' in at least 10 locations in Britain will evolve into Charter Cities with their own laws. They will NOT be legally bound to ANY of the trade agreements between the UK and EU or any other country. They will be used to bypass all International scrutiny

'Sovereign UK' makes deal with Charter city (physically but NOT legally part of the UK) which then trades to other countries OUTSIDE of the constraints of International laws

Thus bypassing all restrictions , tariff, tax, human rights, climate change legislation - everything

Craig Murray contempt of court case has begun.
I'll post updates on this thread.

Court now dealing with some preliminary matters,

The Advocate Depute, Alec Prentice QC begins his submissions for the Crown.

Prentice: Three strands to the matters:
1. Material published contains information likely to identify the complainers
2 Substantial risk of prejudicing the trial via his articles and readers comments on them.
3 information published breached court order.

Prentice says Crown did write to Craig Murray about one of articles before the trial warning him they might constitute contempt of court, but decided not to take formal proceedings at the time.

DEVI KARUMARIAMMAN, THIRUVERKADU (TN)

Devi is worshipped here as both Swayambhu (self-manifested) and as Parashakti (with 4 arms holding skull,sword,trishul,udukkai/damru).

Here, Muruga got Vel from Devi to fight Suran. So the place was called Vel kadu which became Verkadu.


It is said that there was an anthill here long ago. Devi appeared in the dream of a devotee and asked him to build a shrine at that spot. When the anthill was removed, the swayambhu murti of Devi emerged. So Devi is called Karuvil Illadha Karumari ( not in the womb of mother).


Once, Devi went to Surya in the form of an old woman but Surya neglected her. Devi’s anger made Surya lose his brightness.
To appease her, Surya said that His rays would fall on Her directly twice in a year and touch her feet. Also, Sunday is celebrated as day of Devi Karumari.


There is also a wooden image of Devi (Marachilai Amman) here. Devotees offer locks to her in the belief that She would safe guard their houses.
Temple tank (Thiruchamber Poigai) is said to have been created by Subramanya. Taking dip in it is said to cure skin related disorders.

Thread A History lesson for the MOAB:
1. The United States of America is not and has never been a Democracy, we're a Federal Republic tied together by the capital Laws of the Constitution.

Everyone in the country is about to get a harsh lesson on what this really means...

2. In 1871, February 21: Congress Passes an Act to Provide a Government for the District of Columbia, also known as the Act of 1871.

With no constitutional authority to do so, Congress creates a separate form of
government for the District of Columbia.

3. A ten mile square parcel of land (see,
Acts of the Forty-first Congress,” Section 34, Session III, chapters 61 and

4. The act — passed when the country was weakened and financially depleted in
the aftermath of the Civil War — was a strategic move by foreign interests
(international bankers) who were intent upon gaining a stranglehold on the coffers and neck of America.

5. Congress cut a deal w/ the international bankers(Rothschilds of London) to incur a DEBT to said bankers. Because the bankers were not about to lend money to a floundering nation w/out serious stipulations, they devised a way to get their foot in the door of the United States.
