• Courts under RTI for administrative records (HR, budget, infra, vacancy)
• Judicial records (case file): via CPC rules, not RTI
• Certified copy of orders: via court counter (Rs 5-50/page)
• RTI for: case noting, listing logic, judge profile, vacancy data

1. Certified copy of orders — Visit court counter; pay per-page fee.
2. Case file inspection — Court permits inspection on application.
3. Administrative records via RTI — Court PIO (chief secretary or registrar).
4. Judge profile / vacancy — RTI to HC registrar.
5. Listing logic / cause-list rules — RTI to court administration.
6. Court budget + spending — RTI to high court.

• Case no.
• Application form
• Per-page fee (for certified copy)

• Court counter denying certified copy — file RTI to registrar.
• Case noting refused — judicial records exempt; try inspection route.
• Vacancy data refused — RTI to HC registrar; this is administrative.
• Judge bias allegations — limited via RTI; petition to HC instead.

Most “delays” or “rejections” clear within 7-15 days of an RTI being filed. Use this 5-question template:

1. Status of my application no. _____ dated _____ as on date.
2. Name + designation of dealing officer assigned to my file.
3. Reasons for delay beyond the statutory timeline.
4. Copy of any noting / movement of my file in the past 30 days.
5. Likely date of resolution / decision.
