B.Sathishkumar vs The Secretary To Government on 12 October, 2020

In Halsbury's Laws of England, Fourth Edition, Volume 9, in para 27, it is observed that the punishment is inflicted, not for the purpose of protecting either the Court as a whole or the individual Judges of _______ Page 36 http://www.judis.nic.in W.P.No.14434 of 2020 the Court from repetition of the attack but for protecting the public and especially those who either voluntarily or by compulsion are subject to the jurisdiction of the Court, from the mischief they will incur if the authority of the Tribunal is undermined or impaired.

Chandrakant S/O Tammanna Majagi vs Karnataka State Bar Council on 30 November, 2020

14. Yet another reason why we must reject the submission of Mr. Shakti Singh, learned counsel appearing for second respondent-writ petitioner, that a writ petition would not lie is that an advocate, an officer of the Court, discharges public law functions of providing access to justice to needy litigants. He has also the responsibility of ensuring that administration of justice is carried on unhindered. The Bar Association is a collective of advocates, and has certain statutory obligations which it is required to discharge under the Advocates Welfare Fund Act, 2001 (for short the 2001 Act). The central function that the legal profession must perform is nothing less than the administration of justice. (The Practice of Law is a Public Utility' - 'The Lawyer, The Public and Professional Responsibility' by F. Raymond Marks et al - Chicago American Bar Foundation, 1972, p. 288-89). The role of a Lawyer is indispensable in the system of delivery of justice. (R. Muthukrishnan v. Registrar General of the High Court of Judicature at Madras : AIR 2019 SC 849). Lawyers owe a duty not only to the legal system, but also to society.
