This query is : Resolved
Dear Sir,
I am 43+ years old service person (legal & taxation area) & interested to take admission in 3 years LLB course of Kalinga University , Raipur .
This 3 years LLB course is approved by BCI , UGC & local state government as per notification issued.
Please confirm , whether BCI will allow me or not as a registered practicing lawyer after completing this course from Kalinga University , Raipur because of my age factor?
I came to know that supreme court issued a judgement that Sr peoples can work & registered them self as a practicing lawyer after retirement from their Job & there will be no age bar.
Please guide & help
Regards
S Mallick

Dear Mr. Somnath,
Your information is correct. A bench of H L Dattu J. and A K Sikri J. of Hon'ble SC quashed a batch of appeals by various state bar councils, which had framed rules to fix 45 as the upper age limit for enrolment as advocates. In simple words you are allowed to do the practice irrespective of age.
Best Wishes
