<h1>Judgments Can't Be Undone Just Because Judges Change, Supreme Court Voice Warns Against Repeated Recalls Undermining Finality</h1> A Supreme Court judge emphasized that judicial verdicts must not be set aside merely because the authoring judge has retired or been replaced, warning against a trend of succeeding benches overturning prior decisions at the request of aggrieved parties. Citing recent reversals, including orders on retrospective environmental clearances and an insolvency resolution involving a major steel acquisition, the judge stressed that independence of the judiciary requires respect for finality and continuity of judgments. Another bench recently echoed concern over frequent recalls and reversals, reaffirming that maintaining the sanctity and finality of judicial decisions is fundamental to the rule of law, prevents endless litigation, and preserves public confidence in the judicial system, alongside judges' duty of unimpeachable personal conduct and political neutrality.
