Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I file a writ petition against a private person?

A: Generally no, unless the private person performs public functions. For private disputes, a civil suit is the appropriate remedy.

Q: How long does it take to get a decision on a writ petition?

A: Urgent petitions like habeas corpus are heard within days. Others may take 6 months to 2 years. Interim relief can be obtained at the first hearing.

Q: Can I appeal against dismissal of a writ petition?

A: Yes, appeal lies to a Division Bench of the Calcutta High Court (intra-court appeal) and further to the Supreme Court under Article 136.

Q: What is the difference between Article 226 and Article 32?

A: Article 32 allows approaching the Supreme Court for fundamental rights only. Article 226 allows approaching the High Court for both fundamental and legal rights with wider territorial jurisdiction.
