Hearing cases beyond court hours eats into chamber time and not family time since we work after court: Justice DY Chandrachud
The Supreme Court's usual working hours is from 10.30 am to 4 pm but the bench comprising Justices Chandrachud and AS Bopanna sat until 5.15 pm today to hear a case today.
Supreme Court judge Justice DY Chandrachud said on Friday that when judges sit beyond usual court hours to hear cases, it eats into their time in chambers normally spent for research and writing judgments, and not into their family time.
