Sr Adv Nakul Dewan mentions the Amazon Future dispute

Dewan: We just wish to file the written submissions.

CJI NV Ramana: if you want to complicate, drag on and continue this type of litigation. Orders are reserved and now you file and other side will reply #SupremeCourt Image
CJI: I don't understand what is the practice. If that day you mentioned then it was fine. Now ask other party if they are fine with other side. We can't pass orders behind their back

Sr Adv KV Vishwanathan: This is a tactic to delay. I am opposing this.
Dewan appears for Amazon: We just need to crystallise the submissions of Sr Adv Gopal Subramaniam

CJI: If you think we cannot understand oral submissions. Then okay file. You so file Mr Vishwanathan
