Free quote and paragraph finder for advocates in India
Where is this passage?
Paste a passage quoted from a Supreme Court judgment. We look for it in the Court's own text of every Supreme Court judgment we hold, and show the judgment and the Court's paragraph it is in, or tell you that we did not find it.
What you get
- Passage found: the judgment, its official citations, and the Court's paragraph that holds the passage, with the Court's own paragraph number where it numbered them. Reporters such as SCC and AIR number paragraphs differently, so a different number in your draft is not an error.
- Found, with differences: the passage is there, but a word is added, left out or changed, such as a "not", a "may" or a number. Each difference is named beside the Court's words.
- Not found in the judgments we hold: we searched the Court's text of every Supreme Court judgment we can read. This is never a finding that the passage is fake.
- If several judgments hold the passage, we list them earliest first: later judgments often quote earlier ones.
