The Orissa Special Courts (Repeal and Special Provisions) Act, 1995

The Orissa Special Courts (Repeal and Special Provisions) Act, 1995 officially repeals the Orissa Special Courts Act of 1990. It applies to individuals involved in ongoing cases before the former Special Courts established under the 1990 law in Odisha. The Act ensures that all pending corruption cases are seamlessly transferred to Special Judges designated under the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, allowing trials to continue from their current stage. Additionally, it stops ongoing confiscation proceedings under the old law and aligns property attachment and confiscation procedures with standard criminal law frameworks. This law ensures continuous legal proceedings and accountability for corruption offenses without procedural disruption.
