<h1>Department Circular Clarifies High Court Terms: 'Rule nisi,' 'Rule made absolute,' 'Rule discharged,' 'Rule issued' Explained for Consistency.</h1> The circular issued by the department addresses the varying technical expressions used by different High Courts in handling applications and petitions. It provides guidance on specific terms: 'Rule nisi' indicates the petitioner's request will be granted unless the respondent provides a valid reason against it by a set date. 'Rule made absolute' signifies the petitioner's request is granted. 'Rule discharged' means the previously issued rule for showing cause is revoked, thus denying the request. 'Rule issued' indicates the request is granted. This instruction aims to standardize understanding among departmental officers.
