How to check my case status during lockdown?

Even though the Court is operating at a fraction of its prime capacity, it has undertaken remarkable steps to ensure that the justice delivery system is not totally shut down during the pandemic.

If the courts had not suspended normal functioning, as they did from March las year, there is no doubt that the virus would have spread like wildfire amongst lawyers, clerks, court staff and even the judges.

The nation-wide lockdown exempted a small category of ‘essential services’, like food supply, hospitals, power, telecommunications, media and the police. The judiciary however did not figure in this list. Faced with the executive fiat of a complete lockdown, the Supreme Court on March 26 decided to continue functioning and take up only urgent cases. It was a clear message that the judiciary is not under lockdown and would continue to perform its constitutional duties.
 

How to check the status of your case?

You can check your case status by directly going to the respective court’s website. You can search the information by the state and district name, case type, case number, FIR number, party name, advocate name, year and court establishment etc. You can also find links for accessing the courts' orders and cause lists on the respective court’s website.

Moreover, in case you have filed your case using free legal aid, you can contact your legal aid lawyer to know about the status of your case. You can also contact the office of DLSA. If you do not get any response, you can call at the National Legal Aid helpline no, 15100 or email at [email protected] or submit an online application through the portal nalsa.gov.in for free legal assistance.
