Get Real Info Of HC Cases On Mobile 9 Jan 2009, 0359 hrs IST, TNN NAGPUR: The High Court Bar Association (HCBA), Nagpur, has gone online. It has not only started its own user-friendly website (www.hcbanagpur.com) that provides case positions in all 13 courtrooms of Nagpur bench even on cellphones in real time. The HCBA Nagpur is first bar association in the country to provide this facility to the lawyers and litigants. Lawyers as well as litigants can see which case is going on in each courtroom at a click of the mouse or on mobiles. The lawyers or litigants only need to access the website either through a computer or a GPRS-enabled mobile handset. “The facility was started for lawyers shuttling between various courts like District and Sessions court, MAT, CAT, industrial and labour courts. While on the move from one court to another, they had to assign a person in the HC in case their case comes up for hearing. The new facility eliminates the need of this person and also saves on call charges,” Kishor Lambat, secretary of HCBA, told TOI. Lambat, the brain behind the project, added that the system also displays date and time in addition to number of cases. “Not only lawyers who are away, but also those working in the high court won’t have to wait hours for their turn.” The website is connected to court’s numbering system and is updated five seconds after a change is made in the system. The site will soon offer services like daily and weekly cause-lists as well as names and contact numbers of all lawyers. The website will be launched in February.
