Lawyers boycott courts
Staff Reporter
SALEM: Lawyers of Salem and Namakkal districts began a three-day boycott of courts on Wednesday protesting against the decision of full court meetings and Judges of Madras High Court and Madurai Bench to permit the High Court and district court employees to apply for the posts of civil judge in the State.
The boycott was called by the Federation of District and Subordinate Courts Bar Associations of Tamil Nadu and Puducherry. The federation decided to boycott proceedings till July 4.
Members said the in-principle decision of the full court meetings would affect the prospects of young lawyers. They said the First Bench of the Madras High Court consisting of Chief Justice A.K. Ganguly and Justice Ibrahim Kalifullah has held that lawyers enrolled with Bar Council alone were eligible for selection.
In Salem, lawyers also staged a demonstration opposing the decision of the meetings to permit the court employees to participate in the selection process. Federation chairman C.P. Paramasivam, Salem Bar Association president P.N. Mani and senior advocates were present.
