I cannot say anything,’’ Justice Patel said while pointing out that he viewed cases on merit, not by who was involved. “When I became aware about my contemplated transfer to the Allahabad High Court, I decided to resign. The judge told advocates that Dushyant Dave was well aware of his situation. Advocate General of the Karnataka High Court Madhusudhan Naik and other senior lawyers who met Justice Patel Tuesday said the decision to transfer him was “outrageous’’. Meanwhile, the Gujarat High Court Advocates Association (GHCAA) on Tuesday resolved to challenge Justice Patel’s transfer order in the Supreme Court.
