This query is : Resolved
Hello Sir,
In a civil suit, a party engaged a lawyer. After more than half the trial, the lawyer suddenly changed. After the initial nominal fee, the party still hasn't paid the outstanding fees. A claim for recovery of the fees has been filed after hiring another lawyer. However, the judge has now verbally requested a reference from the lawyer to a decision that would allow him to order recovery of the lawyer's outstanding fees.
I request you all to please share any references to such orders if you have any.
Thank you.

Since you have already engaged another lawyer for this purpose you may ask the new lawyer to search for the reference or search it yourself through internet sources.

Thank you Sir,
As you suggested,he already searched and found 2 ref I.e. 1. A.Nawab John V/s VN Subramanian, 2. Jitubhai Rupabhai Raval V/s Bariya Kanabhai Vagha bhai (2023) supreme (Guj)
Problem is that these both ref links are not open to read.
If someone can help me in this regard,it will be helpful to give court such ref.
Many Thanks.
