Common questions from Rohtak clients
The Sessions Court at Rohtak refused bail. What is the next step?
After the Sessions Court at Rohtak refuses bail, the next step is to file a fresh bail application before the Punjab & Haryana High Court at Chandigarh. The High Court is approximately 90 kilometres from Rohtak. The High Court applies an independent assessment and is not bound by the Sessions Court's reasoning or order. Many bail matters that do not succeed at the district level are granted by the High Court when properly presented. Timing depends on the facts, the bench and the state's reply, but urgent matters can be listed quickly.
I am a Haryana state employee from Rohtak. Do I go to CAT or the High Court?
Haryana state government employees, including employees of the Haryana Civil Services, Haryana Police, Haryana Education Department, HSVP, Haryana Roadways and other state departments, are not governed by Central Administrative Tribunal jurisdiction. Their service disputes -- departmental proceedings, pay, promotion, pension, wrongful termination -- are challenged before the Punjab & Haryana High Court by way of writ petition. Only employees of Central Government departments are eligible for CAT. The High Court at Chandigarh is the correct forum for Haryana state employee service disputes.
Can an FIR registered at a Rohtak police station be quashed at the High Court?
Yes. FIR quashing petitions for FIRs registered anywhere in Haryana, including Rohtak, are filed before the Punjab & Haryana High Court under Section 528 BNSS (formerly Section 482 CrPC). Whether an FIR can be quashed depends on the nature of the offence, the allegations, and whether a settlement or compromise is possible. The court looks at the totality of allegations to decide if continuation of criminal proceedings would be an abuse of process. The decision to file a quashing petition should be taken after assessing the specific facts of the case.
