Talk:High courts of India

message: Hi. Feel free to use the image at Madras High Court, if you feel as appropriate. -- Sundar \talk \contribs 13:37, September 5, 2005 (UTC)
:There's not much of the building, more of a statue. If we expand the text we can add it in the future if there are no more better images. =Nichalp «Talk»= 09:31, September 6, 2005 (UTC)
::Ya, I knew that. That's why I've put it in the talk page for the record. I'm just consolidating the available resources. By the way, there is an interesting legend around Manuneedhi Cholan depicted by the statue. -- Sundar \talk \contribs 10:04, September 6, 2005 (UTC)
It is not correct that the Kerala High Court was established in 1958 by the Kerala High Court Act, 1958.  It was created on 1 November 1956 by the States Reorganisation Act, 1956.
Section 49 of that Act:
49. High Courts for the new States. (1) The High Courts exercising immediately before the appointed day jurisdiction in relation to the existing States of Bombay, Madhya Pradesh, and Punjab shall, as from the appointed day, be deemed to be the High Courts for the new States of Bombay, Madhya Pradesh and Punjab, respectively. (2) As from the appointed day, there shall be established a High Court for each of the new States of Kerala, Mysore and Rajasthan.
Section 60 extended the jurisdiction to Lakshadweep.

message: Has this page been altered since it went FA? The images overlap the first big blue box, and the India template box looks a bit clumsy and out of place, surely. Wikidea 14:00, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

message: * The opening paragraph: "There are 24 High Courts at the state and union territory level of India which, together with the Supreme Court of India at the national level, comprise the country's judicial system. ... Below the High Courts is a hierarchy of subordinate courts such as the civil courts, family courts, criminal courts and various other district courts."  So are these subordinate courts not part of the judicial system, then?  I would find that hard to believe.
* References: there is one reference after 2005, from May 2012.  That reference does not support the three dates from 2013. And the Chief Justices / acting Chief Justices - have none of them changed since 2005?  I find that hard to believe. If they have, where are the references for this? This whole article has serious referencing and validation issues because of the old-style use of general references.
*I have tried to sort out some issues - the mish-mash of date formats, non-standard use of italics for legislation - but there are other issues (excessive use of bold, no sortability of the tables, for example) obvious on first look.  I am surprised that this has made it onto the main page without any of these issues being noticed. BencherliteTalk 10:04, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

message: "The Calcutta High Court is the oldest High Court in the country, established on 2 July 1862" is in the sixth paragraph of the preamble - but in the tables of HCs the establishment date is shown as 1 July 1862! According to http://www.ebc-india.com/lawyer/hcourts.htm the correct date is 2 July 1862. I have amended the table accordingly.
Since there's a Wikipedia page for the Indian High Courts Act 1861 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_High_Courts_Act_1861), I've added this link for the Madras, Bombay, Calcutta and Allahabad HCs.
