Superintendence powers over subordinate tribunals enable regulation of practice, forms, records and fee tables subject to statutory limits. Every High Court has superintendence over courts and tribunals in its territory, enabling it to call for returns, make rules and prescribe forms for practice and proceedings, prescribe how books and accounts are kept, and settle tables of fees for court officers and legal practitioners; such measures must be consistent with existing law and obtain prior Governor approval, and do not extend to tribunals constituted under laws relating to the Armed Forces.
