This query is : Resolved
Can a person who is a director of a private company after completion of LLB degree get enrol in the state Bar council without renouncing his title and post? Are there any judgements other than bhupinder kumar sharma v. Bar assn. pathankot that discuss this issue in greater detail? Also what are the statutory provisions dealing with the same issue?

A person employed elsewhere can not be enrolled as the advocate, he has to produce the document to that effect. Please see the application form for enrollment.

He can enroll as an advocate, if he is not drawing any salary or allowances from the private company, and if decide to become a lawyer by profession.
