BCI Cert. and Place of Practice(Verification) Rules, 2015 states that advocates enrolled prior to June 2010 have to obtain certificate of practice and place of practice verification from BCI.
Question is. Is there any restriction on being enrolled in one state bar and being a retainer/ advisor in a different state working as a consultant? if one do not appear before any court nor file vakalatnama, and rather works as an advisor or legal consultant or does only drafting then under the rules such advocate is non practicing. in this scenario
1) whether such an advocate who is not into litigation practise get certificate of practise.
2) What will be place of practice for such not litigation advocates working in law firms/other state and enrolled in a different state.
3) Will certificate of practice be issued in such a case.
4) does an advocate need to transfer the enrolment for even working in a firm as retainer/consultant and not practicing before any court.
