Court experiance

Advocate is friend of court.

From your name it indicate that u can have more experiance of court.

First take NOC from the lawyer then u can proceed accordingly.

Yes, you can persue your case as party in person,

I always encourage every one to represent herself/ himself in his/her own case.

There is no specific procedure to follow for the same as it is your constitutional right to do so. I am appearing as party in person for so many years but no court has asked me anything in writing. but if you want, you can file an application for the same

Please find the attachment of application for the same:

Are u seeking permission? You just clear dues of ur advocate and take back case papers along with noc. Wishing you good luck with ur case. You may take my number in case you need any help in preparing written argument.

oJust file a memo in the court that u want to present ur case by itself as the entrusted adv. is not cooperating with u. NO NEED OF NOC if u want to appear P-I-P. If the adv. doesn't handover u back the case papers when u ask, u 've every right to complaint to the concerned court and the concerned bar council also. U 'll get back ur cases papers, if any. This is my personal exp.

But, just to end, I would definitely like to quote that courts have become slaves of their own rules and anybody appearing P-I-P will be looked down by the bench and u 'll not be benefitted in adversaries. This is also my personal exp. So, when u take a decision, think twice.

NOTE: We are running a forum by name 'Party in Person' in whatsapp group to share our exp.. If anybody wants to join, just send ur no. to 7306685393. Valid and forum respecting discussion is only allowed.
