The CJI's remark came after a senior advocate mentioned a matter for urgent hearing. "The big lawyers want us to just hear them. There will be no luxury litigation in my court. My priority is the smallest litigant sitting at the very back and if required, I'll stay here till midnight for them," he said, reaffirming his commitment to access to justice.
