In court room, certain discipline and certain decorum is required.
Junior advocates often need to be so told by their peers.
In Supreme Court, under new rules, an advocate having less than one year of standing at bar, cannot address the court in a case.
In one case, junior advocate was making his submission in the case. At same time, he had kept his left hand in his pocket. He was in a little "Who Cares-Pose"
Judge immediately took objection and asked,"Why are keeping your hand in your pocket?".
Junior advocate immediately realised his mistake, removed his hand from pocket and regained a posture appropriate for an advocate while addressing judges.
"That's better." Judge said and continued to hear case.
