India’s first experiment with evening courts started in Ahmedabad on November 14, 2006. The evening courts first took up cases related to minor offences, and later progressed to criminal cases. The courts are running well, just like the morning courts.
After Gujarat, Tamil Nadu became the second state in the country to have evening courts.The Evening Court in Tiruchi was inaugurated on July 5, 2007 along with those set up in Chennai, Salem, Coimbatore, Madurai and Tirunelveli.
These courts function from 6.00 p.m. to 8.00 p.m. every day.
Principal secretary to state of Maharashtra issued a notification on August 3 specifying the rules — titled the Maharashtra Evening Courts Rules, 2009.
Under supervision of the Bombay high court, the evening courts, to be established in various districts, will function from 6 pm to 8 pm each day, barring holidays.

i think emphasis should ve been upon increasing the no. of judges in the existing courts, i think evening courts and furthe the concepts like mobile courts as are being used in the state of Punjab and Haryana are virtually a failure.
its not good to shift burden upon the present judicial officers, let there be fresh recruitments and the courts should function normally.

In view of an abundant pending cases through out the country, it will not be out of place to mentioned that, justice delalyed is justice denied. This is a major setback to the people who are seeking justice for a years to years. Even recently, there are a different of opinions seen between CJI and PM over the pending cases. It's a prime need to overcome this problem of pending cases on a priority. Recently the evening courts will be functioing in the state of Maharashtra as per State Govt. Notification. These actions are really appreciated by the Govt. providedly our learned friends suggested to appointing additional judges and working hours of night also to be extended in order to diminsh our pending judicial task.
