Vacation Court for Civil Cases
HC rule on govt


The High Court yesterday issued rule upon the government to show cause why a direction should not be given to constitute vacation court for civil cases during civil court vacation in the subordinate courts every December.

The rule came upon a public interest litigation writ filed by the Human Rights and Peace for Bangladesh, a human rights organisation, challenging the month-long holidaying in December.

A vacation bench of the High Court comprising Justice MA Rashid and Justice M Fazlur Rahman issued the rule, returnable in three weeks.
