Vacating the interim stay granted in slp

Good Day Suresh,

I have been working on your concern. Below is my response and the steps that will follow later on:

In the first place, SCLSC would call for all material documents that are necessary for the application to check if your friend is entitled to legal aid or not. This mainly depends on determinants like annual income and the nature of the case.

After the successful processing of the request, your friend will be provided with a Panel Advocate qualified for the nature of the case by the SCLSC from its list of advocates.

Once the lawyer has been assigned to your friend, your friend will be updated with the information about the lawyer including their contacts. This is mostly done through Email, SMS, or post depending on how the application was made.

After this, your friend can call the lawyer for a case update. The lawyer will go through all the relevant documents and prepare the defense side for the next hearing.

After all this, the lawyer will ask your friend for their signature on the “Vakalatnama” a document that gives an authority to the lawyer to appear in court on their behalf.

In the next hearing, the appointed lawyer will appear in the Supreme Court instead of your friend. In case the matter requires dealings on call for further hearings, the lawyer will take charge and represent your friend to the end of the case.

I hope that I was able to provide you with the answer to your query.
You are free to ask for a follow-up.

Thank you for connecting with us.

Once your friend has received a provisional number and an SLP has been scheduled, the next steps are typically:

Review of the application: The SCLSC will review the legal aid application and determine the validity and merits of the case.
Assignment of a List Attorney: If the application is accepted, the SCLSC will assign a List Attorney to the case.
Pre-trial consultation: The attorney may meet with your friend to go over the details of the case and discuss strategy.
Supreme Court Hearing: The attorney will represent your friend in the SLP hearing.
Good luck to your friend with his or her case!

You will be notified about the details of the advocate assigned to you as requested once your application is passed. You may wait for the communication.
