The bench of Justice R Mahadevan and Justice Mohammed Shaffiq was hearing an appeal preferred by the association again the order of a single judge finding it guilty of wilfully disobeying an earlier court order with respect to the management of the association and conduct of election to the association. Noting that disputes between the associations were depriving opportunities for young players, the court stressed that sports symbolises the spirit of brotherhood, tolerance, mutual respect, leadership quality, command and communication, fostering the spirit of accepting victory and defeat as one and the same. Madras High Court Refuses To Quash Proceedings Against Doctor Accused Of Causing Death By Botched Up Hair Transplant Case Title: Dr Vinith v State and Others Citation: 2023 LiveLaw (Mad) 318 The Madras High Court recently refused to quash criminal proceedings initiated against a Doctor allegedly for causing the death of a patient due to a hair transplant. Justice Sivagnanam said the matter needs to be adjudicated on the facts of the case which the High Court could not do under Section 482 CrPC. The court added that questions such as fitness of the centre to do hair transplants and competency of the doctor to perform the surgery had to be looked into, which required enquiry. Thus, finding that the plea did not meet the parameters for quashing the proceedings as laid down by the Supreme court, the court dismissed the petitions. Madras High Court Asks Govt To Consider Permitting Screening Of Vijay-Starrer 'Leo' From 7AM Instead Of 9AM Case Title: Mr K Ramachandran v The Principal Secretary to Government and Others Citation: 2023 LiveLaw (Mad) 319 The Madras High Court has directed the State of Tamil Nadu to consider permitting the screening of the upcoming Vijay starrer 'Leo' movie from 7 a.m. instead of 9 a.m. Justice Anita Sumanth made the directions on a plea filed by K Ramachandran, producer of the film seeking permission for screening of a special show from 7 a.m. and to permit an additional special show on the date of release at 4 am. Madras High Court Judge Says Jal Jeevan Tenders Cannot Bypass Panchayat President But Refers Issue To Chief Justice Citing Contrary Decision Case Title: Tamil Nadu All Village Panchayat President Welfare Association v State of Tamil Nadu Citation: 2023 LiveLaw (Mad) 320 While hearing a plea seeking to give powers to the Panchayat Presidents to invite and accept tenders in the Jal Jeevan Mission scheme, the Madras High Court commented that work in such schemes falls within the domain of the local bodies and the panchayat presidents should not be bypassed and reduced to the level of a rubber stamp. Justice GR Swaminathan thus took a different view than the one already taken by a single judge pertaining to the same facts. The judge, however suggested that since a single judge had already rejected a plea in this regard, it was not appropriate for him to allow the petition and thus directed the registry to place the papers before the Chief Justice to take a call on the matter. “State’s Rejection Order Contrary To Secular And Democratic Way Of Governance”: Madras High Court Allows RSS To Conduct Route March Case Title: Raja Desingu v The State of Tamil Nadu and Others Citation: 2023 LiveLaw (Mad) 321 While directing the...
