If the querist is a law student, as it appears from the category of query, I suggest he/she goes through Chapter II of Criminal Procedure Code.

So far are Civil Judges are concerned, you must refer to Civil Courts Act of your State.

It always fetches to read the original statute and understand it. You can always come back with your queries if you have any doubts.

All the best!
