Agrawal, Justice S.H. Kapadia, Justice Tarun Chatterjee and Justice Altmas Kabir, met to examine if the collegium's decision need to be reviewed.

Leading advocates including F.S. Nariman, Shanti Bhushan, Ashok Desai and Ram Jethmalani had suggested that the Chief Justice of India should reconsider the decision to elevate the judge to the Supreme Court.

The apex court collegium has recommended to the government to appoint Dinakaran and four others as apex court judges. The recommendation is usually binding.

The Advocates Association of Bangalore Thursday threatened to boycott the court of state Chief Justice Dinakaran in view of the allegations against him.

They also decided to send a memorandum to the prime minister, Chief Justice of India and the law minister appealing to them not to elevate Dinakaran to the Supreme Court nor allow him to continue as chief justice of the Karnataka High Court.

'The high court has a vacation (for Dussehra festivities) from Friday till Oct 4. It resumes on Oct 5 and if Dinakaran attends the court, we will not allow him to sit in his court,' T.G. Ravi, a spokesperson of the association, had told IANS.
