Delhi HC Launches Website Page for Publishing Humorous Courtroom Moments

The Delhi High Court has introduced a new section on its website dedicated to sharing amusing and unexpected moments from courtrooms.

To facilitate this, a special email ID has been set up to receive contributions from lawyers and litigants who have experienced humorous moments in courtrooms.

"Court rooms are a fertile source of humour. Amidst the regular humdrum of daily court room proceedings, humour props up unexpectedly, sometimes on account of the wit of an Advocate or a Judge and sometimes on account of an innocent remark of a litigant or a witness. 'Humour in Court' is an endeavour of the Information Technology & Artificial Intelligence Committee of the High Court of Delhi to capture such moments and preserve them for posterity," the page on the official portal reads.

The notice further states that any litigant or advocate wishing to have their story featured on the page can submit it to humourindhc@gmail.com.

"After screening by the designated committee of the High Court of Delhi, it will be posted," the notice states.

One of the contributions featured in the section is from Justice Rajiv Shakdher, while the other four are from lawyers.
 
Interestingly, this may not be the first instance where a High Court or judicial institution has sought to document courtroom humour.
