Advocates Act

Associate R (Querist) 24 October 2008 This query is : Resolved
One of my friend Advocate is registered with the Allahabad Bar Council (UP) but recently shifted to Mumbai. His registration is not so far transferred from that state to Bombay Bar Council. I want to know whether he can sign on any documents/legal documents i.e. Affidavit, power of Attorney, etc. made and executed in Mumbai.

surely he can. he is an advocate and he is entitled to practice throughout India including the SC.
CONCERNING SIGNING OF DOCUMENTS, THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ENROLLMENT.
but he can not file vakalatnama in Mumbai or any court other THAN in UP.
