Advocate on Record after retiring cannot become an agent of the party after retiring from the case: Karnataka High Court

Courtesy/By: Sayan Dasgupta  |  28 Nov 2019     Views:656

Karnataka HC has held that that counsel on record cannot become an agent of the party after retiring from the case by leave of the Court for prosecuting the suit proceedings.

Justice Krishna S Dixit observed the same while restraining advocate Siraj Ahmed from participating in court proceedings as agent or counsel of the party in the present case.

The petitioner, one A Ashraf Ali, a tenant of the Respondent landlady, B S Susheela Devi, had moved to the Court challenging by the aggrieving situation of appointment of Ahmed stating “the advocate appearing for the respondent – landlady having retired from the case was appointed as an attorney/agent by her to act on her behalf and to conduct the proceedings in these suits.”

 

The Court while upholding the contention put forth by the petitioner relied upon decision of Bombay High Court in ONGC Vs. Offshore Enterprises, AIR 1993 BOMBAY 217 which held

“Advocates in  their  professional  capacity  are enjoined to act with complete impartiality and detachment and not entitled to identify themselves  with the clients or the cause personally.  The paramount duty  of  an  advocate  is  to  assist  the Court in its task of administering justice-  -  -  advocates belong to noble profession of law. On the other hand, a constituted attorney is entitled to  identify himself with the donor of power of attorney and act in the same manner as the suitor litigant is entitled to act. An advocate  is  governed  not  merely by  written  provisions  of  the  Advocates,  Act   1961 but also by traditions of Bar built up for generation during the course of administration of justice for centuries.”
