KATHMANDU, Oct 15: In response to a writ petition filed seeking the registration of a writ against the appointments of 11 judges at Supreme Court (SC), the SC on Sunday decided not to accept such writ again. 


A single bench of SC judge Om Prakash Mishra decided not to register the writ, citing that the same kind of writ was already finalised by the full bench of the court and the second writ could not be registered again, according to SC Spokesperson Narayan Panthi.
