Justice John Michael Cunha of the Karnataka High Court had ordered the special court to take cognisance of the offences mentioned in the chargesheet and proceed in the case as per law.
This was challenged by Yediyurappa in the SC on the grounds that he had not been named in the PCR or the FIR registered by police and hence there were no allegations against him.
The Supreme Court has stayed an order of the Karnataka High Court that reinstated criminal proceedings against Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa in a case of land denotification.

In a setback to the former Minister Katta Subramanya Naidu, the High Court of Karnataka has upheld the proceedings initiated by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) against him, his wife, and eight other family members on the allegation of money laundering.
“There is absolutely no basis for the petitioners to seek quashing of the attachment and consequent confiscation proceedings initiated against them on the purported plea that the same is violative of Article 20(1) of the Constitution of India. No legal right having been accrued in favour of the petitioners to hold on or to enjoy the proceeds of crime, the source of which cannot be explained by them,” the court observed.
