Hello,
I want to remove my case from appearing in Google. Is is possible?
My case is appearing in indiankanoon.org
I have gone through the details and understood that only the registry of the court can do it.
How can i approach the registry? Please advice.
Thanks
Can you remove or modify my court case?
We will not remove or modify any public documents without an order of the court competent to do so. Remember,
there are many, many copies of these court decisions in existence, and Indian Kanoon has just one of
those many copies. If you want information deleted, your only recourse is with the courts that issued the
judgment or order. You should contact the registry of the court directly or engage a lawyer to do so for you.
Can you at least block Google/Yahoo from accessing my judgment?
Yes but only for cases of divorce, maintenance, child adoption and child custody (or cases where the registry
of the court has failed to mask information as required under Section 228-A of the Indian Penal Code).
The cases from the Supreme Court will not be blocked. Send an email to webmaster@indiankanoon.com with the link/URL of the
case on Indian Kanoon. The requests are examined in a batch once 2-3 weeks and will take time. Also note that only "/doc/" and "/docfragment/"
will be blocked from the search engines. If Google/Yahoo still show the "/search/" link that may contain your case,
nothing can be done as search queries to the website are not specific to your case.
