What is the role of the President in relation to the appointment of a retired judge to sit and act as a Judge of a High Court?
The President's role in relation to the appointment of a retired judge to sit and act as a Judge of a High Court is to, on a reference made by the Chief Justice of a High Court for any State, request a person who has held the office of a Judge of that Court or of any other High Court to sit and act as a Judge of the High Court for that State. The retired judge will be entitled to allowances as determined by the President through an order.
