Reported in: (1996)1MLJ315

ORDERSrinivasan, J.1. When this matter was called yesterday, no advocate appeared for the petitioner. The petitioner's representative was present in court and he represented that the Advocates were boycotting the court. We directed the matter to be posted to-day for dismissal.2. When the matter is called to-day, senior counsel, represented that he wanted to avoid unruly scenes in the court and so, he abstained from court. If that is so, it is very unfortunate for the entire Administration of Justice.3. In our opinion, it is hardly a satisfactory explanation for remaining absent from court. If a few advocates decide to boycott the courts, it is not necessary for the others to follow suit. They ought to have attended the court and if they had been prevented from carrying out their duties within the court, stern action would have been taken by the court against such persons.4. It is high time that the members of the noble profession realised their responsibilities and in particular their ...
