The Delhi High Court ruled that releasing pleadings to the media before being considered by the court is not acceptable.

The Court held that such actions undermine the judicial process and could potentially lead to prejudice in ongoing legal proceedings. It emphasized the importance of adhering to legal protocols and maintaining the integrity of the judicial process by preventing unnecessary media exposure.
