An amicus curiae is someone who is not a party to a case and is not solicited by any party, but that is permitted by the court to advise it in respect to some matter of law that directly affects the case.

Amicus Curiae : Latin term meaning "friend of the court". 

1.So can an amicus Curie come inside the family court to represent a party with/without vakkalath? 2." No authority to cross examine the witness examined by adversary I.e. amicus Curie"-- here whats meant by examination by amicus Curie?

Its better Legal  practitionesr only file vakalat and reprtresent Family  or rmatrimonial disputes  before the family court. Party in person and  other people who dont know law much ori its nuances and interpretations can't be  a susbstitute for A   regular   Expert Law praactitioner o r Advocate.        outcome  will   be better i f lawyers represent Family court matters.If you appreciate this answer please convey my forum thanks by clicking thanks.

Madam, Iam clear that legal practitioners or advocates cannot file vakkalath in and FC proceedings.I don't know how you can say yes to legal practitioners to file vakkalath. Yes amicus Curie will be appointed by the court.I understood.amicus Curie is there to support party in persons. Please can anyone answer my second question

Plesae show me the Rule 9 of FCA.moreover section 13 of FCA starts with "Notwithstanding anything contained in any law".

Hence legal practitioners are not allowed in FC but only as amicus curie
