Cooperative housing society act 1960 in maharashtra state

Dear learned advocates 

The managing committee  of our housing society has appointed advocate on case by case basis last month in its monthly meeting and the Advocate will charge Rs12000 to handle a case of the office bearers of our society, which is against few members of the society itself.

I would like to know can MC without approval from AGM appoint any advocate and pay him fees from society's funds.

Your immediate legal views would be highly appreciated 

 

Thank you in advance 

Regards

If the bylaws empower the MC for initiating legal action to protect the interests of the RWA, then the MC can engage the services of a lawyer to sue or to challenge any lawsuit filed against it. 

It depends on the bylaws.

The AGM may only approve it.

It is advisable to engage services of a local prudent lawyer for the benefit of all (including yourself) members of the Society.
