Bangladesh's top court will announce its decision Sunday about rules for lower court judges. Chief Justice Syed Refaat Ahmed leads the group of judges who heard arguments about the case. The court scheduled June 29 as the day they will share their final choice. A lawyer asked the court to review government rules that affect how judges can be punished for wrong actions. The hearing ended with both sides presenting their arguments to the justices.

Lawyer Mohammad Shishir Manir spoke for people who want the court to change its earlier decision. Attorney General Md. Asaduzzaman defended the government's position during the court session. The case centers on official government papers that explain how judges should face discipline. These rules affect judges who work at district and local courts across the country. Both legal teams made their final arguments before the justices made their choice about timing.

A former chief justice had raised concerns about these rules before they became official. Surendra Kumar Sinha sent the proposed rules back to government lawyers for more work. The law ministry had to make changes before publishing the final version. This review hearing represents another step toward settling the dispute about judicial discipline. The Supreme Court's Sunday announcement will determine whether the current rules can remain unchanged.
