Blind people also do law courses and pass with flying marks.
Once a blind persons becomes a Law Graduate, he is also entitled to participate in examination of a judge.
One such blind law graduate passed examination of for Civil Judges with flying marks.
As an experiment, he was appointed as civil judge by High Court.
After some months, High Court received complaints against the blind judge.
The blind judge used to ask his wife to sit near him in court and to tell him how witnesses were behaving while giving deposition in court!
This the experiment was not very successful.
So far as blind lawyers are concerned, they can practice law easily. Because someone can always sit by him to assist.
But, a blind judge, is difficult to be appointed.
The Point
The Justice is supposed to be blind. Judge is not supposed to be blind.
