Advocate on Record

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 01 September 2010 This query is : Resolved
Sir,
My Advocate on Record in a Contempt Matter is engaged on another important matter and cannot appear on the date fixed. In case an adjournment is asked the main issue will be delayed which is very vital. At the same time I do not want to change the advocate on record as he is the architect of the case. Can any other Advocate or the Petitioner's constituted attorney who is also an advocate can represent the case or can we add any other Advocate as Additional Advocate on Record such that neither the Advocate on Record is changed nor the delay takes place.

Yes, you can always take help of another lawyer in addition to the existing one, provided he is ready to work in tandem with the new one.
