This query is : Resolved
BEFORE COMPLITION OF ARGUMENT AND PASSING ORDER MY CASE WAS FOR FINAL CLARIFICATION. MY PLEADER AT THE LAST MOMENT INFORMED ME THAT THE MATTER WAS FOR ORDER. EARLIER I WAS INFORMED THAT THE MATTER WAS FOR FINAL CLARIFICATION. ON THE LAST DAY OF HEARING MY LAWYER ASKED ME TO ATTEND AND TAKE NOTE OF THE ORDER. I SUSPECTED SOMETHING FISHY AND CLARIFIED THE MATTER BEFORE THE JUDGE AND ASKED FOR TIME TO FILE MY WRITTEN ARGUMENT. MY QUERY IS THAT IF I APPOINT A NEW PLEADER AT THIS STAGE CAN THE MATTER BE RE-ARGUED BY THE NEW PLEADER AND SUBMIT WRITTEN ARGUMENT? OR DO I HAVE TO STICK WITH THE PRESENT INCOMPLETE ARGUMENT.

You can appoint a new advocate at any point of time. Generally on appointment of new advocate the court gives fresh opportunity to argue on the matter.
