Supreme Court stays 'drastic' BCI order warning lawyer of licence suspension if she fails to pay ₹50k costs
While rejecting a 'vague' complaint filed by the lawyer, the BCI had imposed costs of ₹ 50,000, adding that her licence would be suspended for six months if the amount was not paid.
The Supreme Court recently stayed a decision by the Bar Council of India (BCI) to impose costs of ₹50,000 on a lawyer for filing a vague complaint alleging misconduct by her brother, also an advocate.
