Contempt of Court – Editorial in Indian Express on report of Kuldip Singh Commission’s report – Whether the commission is a court -Constitutional Bench upheld that The Commission constituted under the 1952 Act is a fact finding body to enable the appropriate Government to decide as to the course of action to be followed. Such Commission is not required to adjudicate upon the rights of the parties and has no adjudicatory functions. The Government is not bound to accept its recommendations or act upon its findings. The mere fact that the procedure adopted by the Commission is of a legal character and it has the power to administer oath will not clothe it with the status of Court. That being so, in our view, the Commission appointed under the 1952 Act is not a Court for the purposes of Contempt of Courts Act even though it is headed by a sitting Supreme Court Judge. Moreover, Section 10A of the 1952 Act leaves no matter of doubt that the High Court has been conferred with the power to take cognizance of the complaint in respect of the acts calculated to bring the Commission or any member thereof into disrepute. Section 10A provides the power of constructive contempt to the Commission by making a reference to the High Court with a right of appeal to this Court. Our answer to the first question is, therefore, in the negative. In view of the above reasons, the contempt petitions are dismissed and the contempt notices are discharged. = CONTEMPT PETITION (CRL.)

Arbitration and conciliation Act – Despite of criminal proceedings and Despite of allegations of fraud and void etc., the arbitration proceedings can be initiated to resolve the disputes as per agreement – Disputes arose between Switzer land company and common wealth games2010 organisation about payment of tail end payments – so many correspondences were made by the petitioner/ company – Respondent failed to pay the amount as CBI cases were registered against Kalmadi and others – due corruption etc., and agreement treated as void – Apex court held that efforts were made to amicably put a “closure to the agreement”. I, therefore, do not find any merit in the submission of the respondent that the petition is not maintainable for non-compliance with Clause 38.3 of the Dispute Resolution Clause. and further held that As a pure question of law, I am unable to accept the very broad proposition that whenever a contract is said to be void-ab-initio, the Courts exercising jurisdiction under Section 8 and Section 11 of the Arbitration Act, 1996 are rendered powerless to refer the disputes to arbitration.= Swiss Timing Limited …Petitioner Versus Organising Committee, Commonwealth Games 2010, Delhi. ….Respondent = 2014(May.Part) http://judis.nic.in/supremecourt/filename=41548
