The Supreme Court has stated that judges must adhere to the assigned roster system and refrain from entertaining cases not specifically assigned to them. The court reinforced that taking up a case without the chief justice’s assignment is a gross impropriety. The order was passed while quashing an order by the Rajasthan High Court, imposing a cost of Rs 50,000 on forum-hunting accused who filed a civil writ petition seeking relief indirectly by clubbing FIRs.
