The apex court, which has already stayed the proceedings against Swamy in the complaints, said, "You file the application. We will take it up on Monday."
Swamy, in a fresh plea, gave details of the six criminal defamation cases pending against him in the court of the Principal District and Session Judge at Chennai and said these have been instituted by the city public prosecutor.
Recently, a bench of justices Dipak Misra and Prafulla C Pant had reserved a verdict on a batch of petitions filed by persons like Swamy, Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal challenging validity of penal laws on defamation.
The court, on different occasions, had stayed criminal proceedings against Gandhi and Kejriwal also.
Defamation cases were filed against Swamy by Tamil Nadu government after he had allegedly made some allegations against Jayalalithaa on social sites.
