They should be made accountable if they totally ignores the clear provision of law. For a general man there is a maxim that " ignorance of law is no excuse". But if any judicial officer ignores law. Nothing is done except quashing his order. At least stricture must be passed.

There is an example . If any judge passes order without giving opportunity to hear other party, Where by the party suffers great loss and mental agony. Party goes to revision or appeal where order is quashed or reversed, but no order is passed against such judge who ignored the universal law of natural justice.

There must be some penalty for a judge passing apparently wrong order ignoring the settled proposition of law.
Judicial Officers are public servants like others and they must be accountable for their deeds(wrong orders).

However Judicial Accountability is now a distant reality in our country. Else, there wont be Appeals and job for lawyers. The best solution is to make a honest Fourth Estate to expose all the shortcomings in the Judiciary.

My senior use to say that in good old days Judges of High Court, while passing orders, if found apparent non application of mind by the trial Judge, the Order of High Court is that , the copy of the said order of reversal must be taken in to the Service Registrar of the Trial Judge aND IT WILL SHOW ITS BACK ON HIS PROMOTION

Recently as per my knowledge Delhi HC passed such order- " Concerned ADJ has no knowledge of Cr.P.C. he must be given training for two years again and copy of this order must be attached with his service book". Delhi HC filed this order when ADJ ordered for the attachment of property of accused without waiting 30 days after the proclamation under Sec 82.
