When Justice G.S.Singhvi ( 2G Judge) was a lawyer
One day, in morning a wretched looking man knocked at his door.
He was turned out from his job. Probably he was a fourth class employee.
He had no papers. No termination order, no appointment order, nothing.
And he had no money.
He, his wife and four children were now on road.
The lawyer gave him food. Then he wondered how to draft case of this man without any papers? How to help this man?
He filed a petition. Next day it was listed in court for hearing.
Judge said,"There is nothing in your case."
And then judge looked at lawyer for a response.
"Sir, this man has really suffered injustice. Please call the govt officer with service file of this man and see for yourself." Lawyer humbly said.
Judge had a impression about this lawyer. This lawyer was meticulous, painstaking and did not make worthless arguments.
The impression worked.
The Judge passed order and called govt officer with file of the man on next date.
On next hearing, the file showed that the man was illegally turned out. Govt order of termination was set aside.
The Man got his job back.
Many many years later, this man wrote a letter to lawyer, addressing him as his God.

A Chartered Accountant who gives away all his income to a charitable trust.
A Chartered Accountant who gives away all his income to a charitable trust.
In Ahmedabad, next to office of my Senior Advocate, there was an office of a Chartered Accountant. He had about staff of 20 people working in his firm. His office looked always busy.
One day, my Senior Advocate late Shri Vasant Desai, told me a secret about this Chartered Accountant.
He drew only fixed, minimum monthly salary from his firm. Rest of the income of firm used to go to a charitable trust.
I have today forgotten his name, otherwise, I might have mentioned it.

Will was typed in double space, one page. Last lines typed in single space. Court disbelieved will
Will was typed in double space on one page. Last lines typed in single space. Court disbelieved will.
After a person dies leaving a Will giving properties to his or her heirs, if there is dispute, probate proceeding starts.
In this proceeding, it is duty of court to form an opinion, whether a will is genuine or fake.
When signature of deceased is obtained at end of page, and then lines are typed above it is possible that last lines may have to been crushed together to complete writing above signature.
Then court will be suspicious. It can examine other circumstances also and then can disbelieve will.
