<h1>Special Courts for Companies Act offences u/s 435: fast-track trials, judge levels by severity, Section 452 excluded.</h1> Section 435 empowers the Central Government to establish or designate Special Courts by notification to secure speedy trial of offences under the Companies Act, 2013, excluding offences under section 452, thereby channeling such prosecutions to dedicated courts. It prescribes the constitution of Special Courts by offence severity: offences punishable with imprisonment of two years or more are to be tried by a single judge who is a Sessions Judge or Additional Sessions Judge, and other offences are to be tried by a Metropolitan Magistrate or a Judicial Magistrate of the First Class, ensuring cases are heard at an appropriate judicial level. Judges are to be appointed by the Central Government with the concurrence of the Chief Justice of the relevant High Court, thereby conditioning appointments on judicial concurrence.
