In addition to our comprehensive legal services, our firm also assists clients in filing writ petitions in the Supreme Court of Nepal. A writ petition is a powerful legal tool used to seek remedies for violations of fundamental rights guaranteed by the Constitution of Nepal.
Types of Writs:
- Habeas Corpus: If you or your loved one has been unlawfully detained; a habeas corpus writ petition can be filed to challenge the detention and secure release from custody.
- Mandamus: A mandamus writ petition is filed to compel public authorities to perform their legal duties or enforce statutory rights. This can be used to address administrative delays or refusals.
- Certiorari: Certiorari writ petitions are filed to quash or review the decisions of lower courts or administrative bodies that are deemed to be erroneous or contrary to law.
- Prohibition: Prohibition writ petitions are used to prevent lower courts or administrative bodies from exceeding their jurisdiction or acting in excess of their legal authority.
- Quo Warranto: Quo warranto writ petitions challenge the legality of holding a public office or position, questioning the authority of the officeholder.
