'Appearance Not Limited To Making Submissions': SCBA & SCAORA File Petition In Supreme Court On Marking Of Lawyers' Appearances

Live Law  

The Supreme Court Bar Association and the Supreme Court Advocates-on-Record Association have jointly filed a writ petition in the Supreme Court seeking a declaration that all Advocates present and appearing in a case are entitled to get their appearances recorded in the orders as per the Supreme Court Rules. The writ petition has been filed in the wake of an observation made by the Supreme Court last year in Bhagwan Singh v State of UP that "Advocates-on-Record may mark the appearances of only those Advocates who are authorized to appear and argue the case on the particular day of hearing." "Role of the Advocate is not limited to making submissions, more so when she is appearing before the highest constitutional Court of the land, but may extend to research of relevant case laws, secure appropriate instructions from the client, preparing the brief for the Senior Advocate, making written submissions for the Hon'ble Court, drafting the pleadings, filing of the case before the Hon'ble court and much more which goes before a case could be heard and adjudicated by this Hon'ble Court.
