Bar Council Disputes Letter to Chief Justice Nagu
Imagine the lawyers' club sent a thank-you note to the head judge.
But some lawyers are upset because the note wasn't approved by everyone first.
The note praised the judge for selecting new top lawyers.
The lawyers' group says the note shouldn't have been sent without checking with them.
They think it could make people think everyone in the lawyers' club agrees.
The council is worried, because it may make people misunderstand the process of selecting these lawyers and they want a better explanation from the one who sent the letter.
Bar Council and Bar Association are in dispute.
The dispute is over a letter to the Chief Justice.
The letter appreciated designation of senior advocates.
The Bar Council says the secretary acted without authorization.
The Council fears the letter misrepresents the legal fraternity.
