GROUPISM ( ADDAA as we call it crudely in colloquial terms ) has become common in society
( corporate industry, government offices, et al ).
Strike them down with the rule of law, WITHOUT MERCY.
Move jokers out of your way and restore meaning to your life.

Towards the end of this piece, there is a link that highlights these lines of the honourable supreme court.
UNDERSTAND the legal provisions properly.

' such a permission were to be granted only in the event a case is made out within the meaning of Rule 3 of Karnataka High Court Rules, 1959 (henceforth referred to as the 'High Court Rules') and further that in the absence of that, an Advocate not on record would be acting as a Senior Advocate designated by this Court in exercise of the powers conferred on it under Section 16(2) of the Advocates Act, 1961.

Remove mischievous and unprofessional people who pass off as professionals, out of your way of LIFE.
One of the legal matters where I am the petitioner, two respondents exist and each has his own advocate.
However the advocate of the respondent 1, chose to appoint a proxy advocate ( proxy counsel ) who for some strange reason
had decided that the life of an advocate gives the advocate the license to ASSAULT THE DIGNITY of the person being cross-examined.
For a few minutes I kept quiet and listened to his high-pitch drama and attempts to assault my dignity, in the name of cross-examination. When he went over-board, I cut him short in the open court and told him he may follow the advocates act, 1961 and the laid down rules and KEEP MOVING.
The Judge too seemed to be influenced by his forceful methods and I instantly told the Judge that with due respects to the court, I must make it clear that the judge cannot speak to me in a rude method.
There was an adverse comment in the deposition sheet.
I filed a complaint against the judge, mentioned his adverse comment, submitted it at the office, took an acknowledgement and was on a wait and watch mode.
I made it clear in the complaint with these lines ' I HAVE COME TO THE COURT OF LAW, TOWARDS MY LEGALLY ENTITLED RIGHTS BY THE HONOURABLE CONSTITUTION OF INDIA AND I HAVE NOT ENTERED THE PRIVATE RESIDENCE OF ANY PERSON '
I received a phone call from an advocate who told me that the notice board in courts ( famous for displaying an announcement and removing it within short time ) has a recent announcement that any complaint against any sitting judge/ officer should be accompanied by an affidavit.
I immediately submitted an affidavit and marked a copy to the registrar-general of the high court of the complaint and the affidavit.
Without wasting any further time, I filed an RTI and sought details of the MEMORANDUM OF APPEARANCE of the proxy counsel.
In today's society and professional scenario, when the supreme court has expressed shock over almost forty percent of advocates being fake and self-proclaimed advocates, how can i believe a person in black coat who enters the court and gives his initials and says he represents the main advocate whose initials alone he further gives and the deposition sheet too has the same entry ?
So, I filed another RTI seeking to know the bar council enrollment number of this proxy-counsel.
I filed a third RTI seeking to know the details of qualifying exam/ interview/ selection records of the Judge of that court.
The net-net result was that the Principal Judge reviewed the complaint and the affidavit etc along with the RTI and made it clear to the judge that if he cannot handle the case and parties the way they should be, he may transfer it to the court of the Principal Judge himself.
This time round, the behaviour was very courteous and the main advocate walked in and gave a statement to the court that he had indeed authorized this advocate to represent the respondent on his behalf and the same was noted.
The RTIs too would be required to be given appropriate responses and that can happen when everything is procedurally done as per law.
Now, read this IMPORTANT piece here and henceforth insist on the main advocate of the respondent ( OP - Opposite Party ) file a proper memorandum of appearance authorizing his/her brother/sister-advocate to appear on his behalf.

TIMES HAVE CHANGED. DO NOT PERMIT anybody to snatch your rights. DO NOT PERMIT PEOPLE TO TAKE YOU TO THE YEAR 1975 AND FORCE YOU TO ACCEPT THAT WHICH THEY BELIEVE TO BE JUSTICE AND START BEHAVING LIKE AN EXTRA-CONSTITUTIONAL BODY.
HAVE BASIC COURAGE AND WISELY FIGHT IT OUT.
But fight wisely since ultimately neither the court nor the advocate has anything to lose, except for the fact that MANY PEOPLE TODAY ( FROM ALL PROFESSIONS ) EARN HUGE PILES OF GARBAGE
( SIN AND CRIMES ) FOR THEMSELVES AND THEIR FAMILY, but deep philosophy has a different platform and here, the intention of this article is to inform the readers to FIGHT IT OUT WISELY since NO BODY can give your own LEGAL RIGHT to you since it ALREADY EXISTS.
So, remove the jokers out of your way and bring meaning into your LIFE.
