No special consideration for lawyers coming from other places to argue; their absence not ground for adjournment: Bombay High Court

Justice Borkar passed the order in a plea filed by Deepak Kochhar, husband of former Chief Executive Officer of ICICI Bank Chanda Kochhar, seeking quashing of money laundering case by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in the alleged ICICI Bank-Videocon case.

When the petition was listed for hearing on April 17, Advocate Dadhichi Mhaispurkar sought adjournment as the senior advocate who was the lead counsel in the matter could not appear due to difficulty.

Senior Advocate Vikram Chaudhari, a counsel from Delhi had previously appeared in the matter for Kochhar.

While Justice Borkar allowed the request for adjournment, he clarified that no such further adjournments will be granted.
