* Authorities have a constitutional obligation to expeditiously decide cases involving "personal liberty" of citizens and even a day's delay in such a case matters, says Supreme Court
* The Supreme Court stayed the National Green Tribunal's direction to limit to 30 the number of people in 'Dhol-Tasha' groups participating in Ganpati celebrations, including idol immersion rituals, in Pune.
* The SC set aside the National Green Tribunal (NGT) decision directing the closure of a waste processing plant in Pune's Baner, saying closing it would be "detrimental" to public interest.
* The Supreme Court on September 6 ordered status quo to be maintained before appellate tribunal NCLAT passes orders in a case related to the insolvency resolution process of Tamil Nadu-based Coastal Energy Pvt Ltd (CEPL).
* The Supreme Court held that the prescribed tenure of an arbitral tribunal to pass an award can be extended even after the expiry of its term, saying courts should enact a law to "avoid crippling consequences". One should try to lead a “meaningful life”. "Impractical Scenario".
