Chief Justice of India Dipak Misra’s last day in the Supreme Court came to an anticlimactic end Monday, when a three-member bench headed by him had a relatively light workload. In stark contrast, the last week was a hectic one in the apex court, which saw it pronounce more than 40 judgments, 20 of which were delivered by benches presided over by Misra. CJI Misra, who took over as the top judge on 27 August, 2017, retires Tuesday after a contentious tenure. During the year, he was hit by allegations of corruption, the threat of an impeachment motion and a press conference, which saw senior Supreme Court judges express their loss of confidence in him.
