arguing ones own cases

(Querist) 28 January 2011 This query is : Resolved 
i am sundaramoorthy olaganathan from tamilnadu and pose you a query:

Can a layman without any legal qualifications argue his case, both civil and criminal cases in a court?. Is it essential that he should be an affected party in the case he is arguing?

what about the appeals?
adv. rajeev ( rajoo ) (Expert) 28 January 2011
You can argue your own case, but not others case.
Devajyoti Barman (Expert) 28 January 2011
yes you can.
Arvind Singh Chauhan (Expert) 28 January 2011
Yes one can argue in his own case. It is essential that he should be an affected party in the case he is arguing. But court may not allow him from laying irrelevant talks or narrate irrelevant story, which has no concern with law.
Parveen Kr. Aggarwal (Expert) 28 January 2011
For arguing a case before a court of law legal qualification is not required. But this applies to party of a case only. If any person other than a party to the proceeding want to argue a case, he/she must be an authorised agent and can argue the case only with the permission of the court. The same applies to appeals.
