Frequently Asked Questions

High Court Matters FAQs

The Lucknow Bench of the High Court of Judicature at Allahabad hears cases arising from the districts within its territorial jurisdiction, including Lucknow. These include writ petitions against public authorities, petitions to quash criminal proceedings, bail matters, and first and second appeals.

A petition is filed under Section 482 CrPC (now Section 528 BNSS) or as a writ petition. The High Court examines whether the FIR, read as it stands, discloses an offence, whether the proceedings are an abuse of process, or whether the parties have genuinely settled. It may also grant interim protection, such as no coercive action, while the petition is pending.

Usually the advocate appears on your behalf. The court can, however, direct a party to be present, for example when it refers a matrimonial dispute to mediation and wants both sides before the mediation centre.

जब कोई सरकारी प्राधिकरण, विभाग या बैंक जैसी संस्था कानून के विरुद्ध कार्य करे या मौलिक अथवा कानूनी अधिकारों का उल्लंघन हो, तब संविधान के अनुच्छेद 226 के तहत हाईकोर्ट में रिट याचिका दायर की जा सकती है। सामान्यतः पहले यह देखा जाता है कि कोई प्रभावी वैकल्पिक उपाय उपलब्ध तो नहीं है। लखनऊ और आसपास के जिलों के मामले लखनऊ बेंच में सुने जाते हैं।
