Non-examination of sitting Judge

If any Judge considers it expedient to depose before a court or tribunal, it is his decision as to whether as a sitting Judge he should depose on oath before a tribunal maintaining his dignity and status. It is none of the business of the Chief Justice to permit a sitting Judge to accord permission to depose in a tribunal. There is no legal bar for a sitting Judge to prosecute litigation in any court of law or to depose before a tribunal. Salauddin Qader Chowdhury vs Bangladesh, 67 DLR (AD) 295
