Explanation using Example

Imagine a scenario where a Magistrate is on his way to the courthouse to preside over a trial. On his journey, a bailiff attempts to serve him with a civil process for a personal debt. According to Section 135(1) of The Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, the Magistrate cannot be arrested under this civil process while he is in transit to perform his judicial duties. This ensures that the administration of justice is not disrupted by personal legal matters.
