GUIDELINE

Guidelines for Drafting a Writ Petition Seeking a Writ of Prohibition from a High Court Under Article 226 of the Constitution to Prohibit Respondents from Proceeding with Disciplinary Action:

Title and Parties: Start with a clear title, including your name as the petitioner and the respondents' names (usually the disciplinary authority or employer). Specify that you seek a writ of prohibition.

Jurisdiction: State that the High Court has jurisdiction under Article 226 to hear the petition.

Facts: Provide a concise, chronological account of the relevant facts leading to the disciplinary action. Include dates, events, and any communication relevant to the case.

Legal Provisions: Cite Article 226 and any other applicable laws or precedents that support your petition.

Cause of Action: Clearly state the cause of action, explaining why the disciplinary action should be prohibited, such as procedural irregularities or a violation of principles of natural justice.

Prayer: Explicitly state the relief sought, which is the prohibition of the disciplinary proceedings.

Affidavit: Attach an affidavit verifying the facts stated in the petition.

Annexures: Include copies of all relevant documents, orders, notices, and correspondence.

Grounds: Detail the legal grounds for a writ of prohibition, emphasizing the illegality or irregularity in the disciplinary action.

Common Mistakes to Avoid: Avoid vague language, excessive legal jargon, and ensure a well-structured, concise petition. Eliminate typographical errors and inconsistencies.

Service: Serve notice to the respondents and provide proof of service.

Legal Representation: Consider seeking legal counsel to ensure compliance with procedural and substantive aspects.

Filing and Follow-up: File the petition in the High Court registry and diligently follow up to ensure timely consideration.

Writs of prohibition are used to prevent judicial or quasi-judicial bodies from acting beyond their jurisdiction or in violation of natural justice. Clarity, precision, and adherence to legal norms are essential in your petition, and consulting a legal expert can help avoid errors in the process.
