Vakalatnama

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 07 October 2011 This query is : Resolved 
My wife has put 498A case against me in Dec 2010 and the police has filed the chargesheet.

The vakalatnama of advocate of my wife was not signed by my wife but it was signed by her lawyer only.

will vakalatnama unsigned by my wife would be of any help to me in fighting my case.

Can I argue that case is itself not maintainable as her lawyer appeared before the court without her approval.

Thanks............

In 498-a why does she need a lawyer? It's a state case.

And in any case, she can always sign it at any stage. As it just might be a lapse or oversight.

I remember once a bail petition was presented in court with a title.

"Application u/s 437 for Jail"

The court laughed but granted the bail as it is just an error, which has no impact on the case.
