 INSTRUCTIONS/GUIDELINES FOR
FILLING UP THE CODING SHEETS

1. The Coding Sheet procedure is effective from 12.6.2006.

2. One of the main purposes for introducing the Coding Sheet is to enable the Registry to easily
identify the cases as and when required and also for Grouping similar cases for composite disposal. It
will also enable the Registry, learned counsel as well as the Court to have a speedy disposal of cases
if they are covered by earlier decisions.

3. The Coding Sheet in thick Green Sheet is to be filed by the petitioner/appellant along with the
filing papers after filling all the particulars in black ink leaving alone the portions to be filled by the
Registry. The Coding Sheet shall be stitched with the Filing Papers.

4. The Model Coding Sheets for Original Side, Writ Side, Appellate Side and Criminal Side,
Review Applications, Cross Objection and Caveat Petitions duly filled in, are enclosed along with
these Guidelines.

5. Anyone having any doubt in regard to filling of the Coding Sheets, may contact the Section
Officers of the concerned Filing Sections for necessary clarification.

6. In the columns relating to the Petitioner/Appellant/Applicant or the Respondent or the name of

the respective counsel, it is not necessary to fill the names of all the parties/counsel but only the
names of the first petitioner and the first respondent and the name of the leading counsel alone.

7. A list of Acts/Subjects with Code numbers is provided to fill up the columns ‘Subject
Matter/Act’ and ‘Subject Category Code’.

8. A list of various Case Types being followed in the High Court and their abbreviation is also
provided.

9. Copies of the Coding Sheets, Model Coding Sheets, List of Case Types and the List of
Acts/Subjects have been circulated to the Presidents of all the Advocates/Bar Associations who shall
take sufficient copies and circulate to their members.

10. Further, copies of the Coding Sheets, Model Coding Sheets, List of Case Types and the List of
Acts/Subjects are exhibited in the notice boards of the respective Filing Sections and the notice boards
of the respective Associations.

11. The Coding Sheets, Model Coding Sheets, List of Case Types and the List of Acts/Subjects
are also available in the website of the High Court www.hcmadras.tn.nic.in. They will also be
available in the information kiosks, which will be installed in the strategic points in the High Court.

12. If the space provided for filling up information in regard to the column
‘connected/previous/covered cases if any’ in the Coding Sheet is not sufficient, the parties can write the
numbers below the respective boxes.

13. The column ‘connected/previous/covered cases if any’ is meant for cases which are connected
to the case being filed irrespective of the case types. For example, if a case is disposed of earlier on the
same cause of action or on the case arising on the same provision though not relating to the same
parties, it shall be mentioned in this column.

14. All types of Miscellaneous Petitions/Applications like W.M.P., W.V.M.P., W.A.M.P.,

W.A.V.M.P., C.M.P., Crl.M.P., T.C.M.P., excepting the miscellaneous applications filed on the
Original Side, shall hereinafter be referred as ‘Miscellaneous Petitions’ and numbered as such. Every
Miscellaneous Petition shall be allotted numbers in seriatim. For example, the first Miscellaneous
Petition filed in a Writ Petition No.20000 of 2006 shall be referred as M.P. No.1 of 2006 in
W.P.No.20000 of 2006 and the second Miscellaneous Petition shall be referred as M.P. No.2 of 2006 in
W.P. No.20000 of 2006. This procedure will apply to all the main case types that would be filed in the
High Court, Madras, from 12.6.2006.

15. Where a case is a Miscellaneous Petition in a pending main case, the provision under which it is
filed need not be mentioned in the blank space provided for entering Subject Matter/Act.
16. In cases other than Miscellaneous Petitions, the provision under challenge or the provision
under which the impugned order was passed is to be entered in the blank space meant for entering the
Subject Matter/Act.

17. There is a column in the top right corner of the Coding Sheet to indicate if any of the parties is a
senior citizen. There may be cases where there may not be any senior citizen at the time of filing of the
cases but because of impleadment or passage of time, the case may have a senior citizen as a party. In
such a case, any of the parties to the proceedings shall file a representation in this regard with the
Deputy Registrar of the concerned Section for making necessary entries in the Coding Sheet, upon
which the Registry will update the coding sheet as well as the data.

18. Though all the Acts and possible subjects have been included in the list, there may be cases
where the advocates while filling the Coding Sheet may find that the Act under which the impugned
proceedings arise or the Subject relating to the proceedings, does not find a place in the list. In such
cases, they shall write the Act/Subject in the column ‘Subject Matter/Act’ without writing the Subject
Category Code. They are requested to bring the same to the notice of the concerned Deputy Registrar
about the inclusion of the Act, which is missing in the list, who will take necessary steps to include the
same in the list and update the same.

19. Special Instructions for filling up the Coding Sheets of Writ Side

a. The Act under which the impugned proceedings arise or the Act under challenge shall be
mentioned in the space meant for ‘Subject Matter/Act’. The corresponding code shall be mentioned in
the space meant for Subject/Category Code. If the proceedings fall under any of the ‘subjects’

b. If the cases relate to Green Bench matters or the Public Interest Litigation, the same shall be

1981, the space against the column ‘Subject Matter/Act’ shall be mentioned as ‘Public Interest
Litigation – Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981’. However, the Subject Category

20. Special Instructions for filling up the Coding Sheets of Original Side
