New Delhi: The Delhi High Court has designated 70 advocates as Senior Advocates, recognizing their exceptional legal expertise and contributions to the field of law. This decision, announced on Friday, marks a significant development in the legal community.
While 70 advocates were elevated to senior designation, the court deferred the designation of 67 others. The selection process involves rigorous scrutiny of the candidates’ legal acumen, court conduct, and professional achievements, in line with the guidelines laid out for such appointments.
This move is seen as a boost for the legal fraternity in Delhi, as Senior Advocates play a crucial role in shaping judicial discourse and mentoring younger lawyers. The newly designated Senior Advocates are expected to bring their vast experience to bear in addressing complex legal matters before the court.
The deferred designations will likely be revisited in subsequent sessions as per the court’s procedural framework.
