There is something called Court of records. The Supreme Court and all
High Courts are Court of records. Decisions of court of records are as
good as rule and can be quotted as precedent or citation. The CIC and
SICs are neither courts nor court of records. I do not give much value
to their decisions except for quotting to them. If CIC or SICs have
given certain decision this may be quotted as a precedcent while
argfuing a case before the same court. Though nothing stops them from
disowning their earlier decision of different IC the appellant may
try. One find certain SICs like my friend SIC, Kerala not caring
when the appellant quote CICs decisions. I have a case where the SIC,
Kerala telling that he is independent and not bound to abide by CICs
decision.
