  • Historic Rebellion by Supreme Court Judges: Democracy in Danger *
    LAW MANTRA [THINK BEYOND OTHERS] [I.S.S.N 2321- 6417 (Online) Ph.: +91- 9310053923 Website: journal.lawmantra.co.in E-mail: [email protected] [email protected] HISTORIC REBELLION BY SUPREME COURT JUDGES: DEMOCRACY IN DANGER * Abstract Justice Jasti Chelameswar, who along with Justices Ranjan Gogoi — tipped to be the chief justice after CJI Dipak Misra retires in October — MB Lokur and Kurian Joseph called the conference, said they had been “compelled to call” the conference. “This is an extraordinary event in the history of the nation, more particularly this nation... The administration of the Supreme Court is not in order and many things which are less than desirable have happened in the last few months,” he added. Introduction Turmoil in Supreme Court was seen as four judges speak out against Chief Justice Dipak Misra, Supreme Court judges J Chelameswar, Ranjan Gogoi, MB Lokur and Kurian Joseph release letter raising questions over the justice delivery system and allocation of cases. Simmering differences in the Supreme Court of India bloomed on Friday-12th January, 2018, with four senior judges publicly criticising the Chief Justice of India (CJI) for his style of administration and over the allocation of cases. The unexpected press conference, and the not entirely surprising revelations in the statement issued by the judges, resulted in lawyers, politicians, and analysts taking sides, with some insisting that the judges should not have gone public and others countering that they had no other option. Justice Jasti Chelameswar, who along with Justices Ranjan Gogoi — tipped to be the chief justice after CJI Dipak Misra retires in October — MB Lokur and Kurian Joseph called the conference, said they had been “compelled to call” the conference.

  • Ll.B. Vi Term Lb-601
    LL.B. VI TERM LB-601 - Professional Ethics and Accounting System Course materials Selected and Edited by Haris Jamil Rohit Moonka FACULTY OF LAW UNIVERSITY OF DELHI, DELHI – 110007 January, 2021 (For private use only in the course of instruction) LL.B. VI TERM Paper – LB-601 Advocacy, Professional Ethics and Accountancy for Lawyers Objectives of the Course: Professional ethics form the foundation in the lives of the lawyers. Every person has been given the right to engage a lawyer of their choice to represent their case. It means that lawyers have the constitutional obligation to take up the case of every person who approaches them for legal representation. Does it mean that the lawyer is obligated to represent a self-confessed murderer, rapist, and other accused persons who are alleged to have committed very serious offences against the nation even though his conscience or his personal beliefs do not permit that? How can the lawyer do that when his inner conscience revolts at the thought of represent a certain category of persons? All clients approach the lawyer with hope and desire that their lawyers will zealously represent their case. Does zealous representation mean that the lawyers must get the relief sought by the clients by all means? Are there any boundaries set by law or professional ethics that a lawyer must not cross? What is the role of truth and morality in determining the standards of professional ethics for lawyers? What conduct amounts to professional misconduct? What are the repercussions if a lawyer does not follow the principles of professional ethics? What are the mechanisms set by law to deal with complaints of professional misconduct? These and many other similar other questions trouble the mind of new entrants to law practice.
