APHC010652412025 IN THE HIGH COURT OF ANDHRA PRADESH AT AMARAVATI WRIT PETITION NO: 33901 of 2025 [3552] M. Solomon Raju, ...Petitioner Vs. The State Of Andhra Pradesh and Others ...Respondent(s) ********** Advocate for Petitioner: Mr. Chaparla Sitaram, appearing vice Mr. Balaiah B. Advocate for Respondent: GP for Law Legislative Affairs CORAM : THE CHIEF JUSTICE DHIRAJ SINGH THAKUR SRI JUSTICE CHALLA GUNARANJAN DATE : 08.12.2025 P C : The present writ petition has been filed by the petitioner, who is a practicing advocate, challenging the issuance of the High Court calendar for the year 2026 primarily on the ground that the same was published without consulting the Bar Association or its President despite repeated representations in that regard. The petitioner seeks a further relief in the nature of a direction to re- issue the High Court calendar in consultation with the Andhra Pradesh High Court Bar Association. 2 HCJ & CGR, J W.P. No: 33901 of 2025 2. It can be seen that High Court Bar Association is not a petitioner before us, which otherwise represents the collective interest of the advocates practicing in the High Court. 3. Needless to say that the High Court calendar is published based upon the recommendation of a Committee constituted specifically for that purpose, which takes into consideration all material factors. The recommendations are then circulated through the full Court and it is only upon approval by the full Court that the same is published. All the requisite steps which are otherwise required to be taken have been followed strictly before the calendar was published. Needless to say that the High Court has always considered the genuine requests of the members of the Bar as represented through the Bar Association. 4. Be that as it may, we find no merit in the present petition, which is accordingly dismissed. No costs. Consequently, pending miscellaneous applications, if any, shall stand closed.
