[4/5, 19:57] Mhc Advt Maharaja Advt: Respcted Lordship I had read the messages about the cases handled by my Learned Senior Mr.Rupert Barnabas sir.. In the same line of thoughts I would also wish to reminiscence about my experience before your Lordship with my Senior.. The case was – Gopal (BSNL -LineMan) Vs State rep by CBI This was a very Pathetic case where the Petitioner has been wrongly framed. I had conducted the Trial in the lower Court and cross examined almost 5 witnesses. The Trial Court convicted the Appellant and a sentence of 2 years was imposed with 10000 fine.. When your Lordship was sitting in the Single Bench, I had mentioned it to your lordship to hear the Appeal case. Your Lordship infact quipped me as to whether I was really intended to Argue the appeal before your lordship. Finally your lordship had aggred to my request and the case was directed to be listed at 2:15 for arguments.. After I had mentioned many were skeptical as to why i had mentioned the appeal to be taken by your lordship and they also scared me by saying that your Lordship would dismiss the appeal and not grant it. Further your Lordship had strictly ordered that if I do not argue the case on Wednesday (date of Listing) that he would dismiss it. I was so petrified and After I had come to the Famous Tree Bar Association i had discussed it with my senior Rupert Sir and finally he agreed to appear in the case. The day finally came for the arguments and it was specefically posted at 2:15 everyday. I had brought Mr.Rupert sir on the first day of argument and your Lordship was plesantly suprised to see him and quipped me whether there was anymore suprise or in store for me🙂 The arguments went on for a week and all the statements of the witnesses were elaborately read out to your Lordship.. After the arguments were over your lordship had reserved the orders. But on the day when the orderes were passed and when i had read the same I was more than happy and all the points that was argued was there in the Order and above all there was also a very reasoned observation made by your lordship in the Judgment which will always stand out. The Judgment was soo precise that the same was throughly appreciated by many.. I would also wish to quote the comment made by your Lordship in the open court while pronouncing the order.. In quotes ” The Counsel should not Test the Patience of the Bench this much. I had infact understoon the case when the statement of PW3 was read out, but the counsel did not leave me and made sure I hear all the statements of the Witnesses” Now I also want to mention here about my Senior Mr. Rupert sir He is a great person and very knowledgeable man who has an immense knowledge in Law and the practice.. Though his arguments would seem a little rude to many the way he handles the Trial is commendable.. He had taught me many things and one important quality that I admire is the way he prepares the Affidavits. He would read the drafts over and over till he is satisfied and makes correction all the way till it reaches the registry. His drafting skills are highly commendable. But All said If only he had a little patience in his life things would have been much better and he would have definetely reached great places.. But i would say that he is still a well-read and a knowledgeable man.. I would like to thank Your Lordship for giving such a wonderful judgment and also for this moment for helping me share this with all.. [4/6, 07:43] Sekarreporter 1: 🌹🌹
