Supreme Court Pleading & Forms

Supreme Court Pleadings & Forms is a hands-on drafting manual that equips practitioners to prepare error-free, persuasive petitions and applications for India’s highest court. Organized by petition type — writ petitions (Articles 32/226), Special Leave Petitions (SLP), Civil Appeals, Criminal Appeals, curative petitions, contempt petitions and interlocutory/interim applications — the volume supplies ready-to-use templates with margin notes explaining essential components, maintainability checks, limitation calculations, citation norms and prayer drafting. Practical annexures include affidavit formats, verification clauses, sample cause-title captions, filing & registry procedural tips, e-filing guidance, and a typographical readiness checklist to minimize registry objections. Each model is followed by tactical drafting tips: how to frame grounds, preserve interlocutory relief, use comparative tables of orders, and draft concise issues for hearing lists. Updated to reflect current Supreme Court practice directions, this compendium is designed for busy advocates, judicial clerks and litigants who need dependable, courtroom-ready pleadings — reducing drafting time, improving acceptance rates at registry, and strengthening the presentation of core issues at hearing.
