The Andhra Pradesh (Telangana Area) Small Causes Courts (Amendment) Act, 2005

Civil20054 sections

This Act amends the Andhra Pradesh (Telangana Area) Small Causes Courts Act, 1330 Fasli, to modernize judicial administration during court holidays. Its primary purpose is to ensure that the judicial system remains accessible even when regular courts are closed for summer vacation. The Act empowers the High Court to permit Small Causes Courts to adjourn for up to two months annually and, crucially, mandates the appointment of a "Vacation Civil Judge" to handle urgent matters during this period. This ensures that citizens facing time-sensitive legal issues are not left without a remedy simply because the regular courts are on break.
