LLB after 52

Gaurav Nanda (Querist) 14 March 2009 This query is : Resolved
Hi can a person who has done B.A. do LLB after the age of 52 (almost close to be becoming a senior citizen) and then after completing his 3 year law degree practice after 55?

I read somewhere that delhi HC allowed joining of LLB course even for senior citizens but now i am hearing verbally that SC has overturned this, but i am not sure that these r rumors or truth. Please clarify the current status on this

A change in Rules is proposed which is likely to prohibit admission to LL.B after 45 years of age. But right now there is no such restriction. So go ahead.

Dear Mr. Gaurav,
There is no such restriction right now.

One may do his LLB degree at the age of 52 and may thereafter pursue his career as a lawyer.

BCI has recently made some changes regarding the upper limit.
Have a look at--
