The boycott is against what they termed as "failure" by the Karnataka High Court Chief Justice to initiate action against those involved in the violence that broke out in the city civil court complex on March 2.

A resolution to this effect was passed by AAB last week.

In their resolution, the AAB stated that they would submit a memorandum to the Chief Justice of India seeking transfer of the Karnataka High Court Chief Justice.

It also resolved to seek the transfer of the Registrar-General and the Registrar (Vigilance) of the High Court on the grounds that they could not check the "administrative failure."

Meanwhile, some advocates opposed this move and gave a representation to AAB regarding this, but the association is yet to respond.

The High Court has ordered an SIT probe into the violence and the team has to submit its report within three months.

CID is already probing the incident.
