The Supreme Court Collegium, a group composed of Chief Justice Dipak Misra
and four other senior judges, once again failed to formally reiterate the
name of Justice K.M Joseph for elevation to the top court.

Even at the last Collegium meeting, held on May 2, the decision was
deferred for unstated reasons.

The Collegium resolution (on the website) stated that while it's unanimous
in the view that Justice KM Joseph's name should be reiterated for
elevation to the top court but 'in-principle', the formal reiteration to
the Centre has not happened since there could not be an agreement on other
names proposed for elevation to Supreme Court.

The decision has been deferred till May 16, and Joseph's name will be sent
with others.

KM Joseph is the Chief Justice of the Uttarakhand High Court.

At the Collegium's last meeting, there was no consensus on recommending
Joseph's elevation, after the government returned the file. According to
sources, while the chief justice felt other names should also be discussed
before reasserting Joseph's, the other judges' firm view was that instances
of 'cherry picking' by the government shouldn't be tolerated.

Jasti Chelameshwar, second only to the chief justice in terms of seniority,
wrote to him recently to demand that Joseph's name be re-asserted as soon
as possible.
