A court in New Delhi agreed to hear arguments that Union Carbide Corp. had scorned India’s judicial system in the cases stemming from the Bhopal gas disaster, according to a news report. The petition alleges that Union Carbide showed contempt for India’s court system by asking District Judge M. W. Deo to excuse himself from hearing a $3-billion damage suit filed by India against the company. The company had argued that Deo showed bias in December when he ordered Union Carbide to make relief payments to gas victims before a final decision had been made in the case.
