Ever wondered if you really need a lawyer to fight your case in court? What if you want to represent yourself? Is it legally allowed? Or will the judge just say, "Nice try, but where’s your lawyer?" 🤷♂️
Let’s break it down! ⬇️
✅ Can You Represent Yourself in Court?
✔️ YES! Indian law allows individuals to fight their own cases in both civil and criminal courts. ⚖️
✔️ As per Order 3 Rule 1 of the Civil Procedure Code (CPC), 1908, a person can appear in person or authorize a lawyer.
✔️ Even the Supreme Court of India has ruled that a litigant has the right to self-representation! 🏛️
