This query is : Resolved
In my case before the Haryana appellate court, the civil appeal was dismissed in default, and the appellant has filed a restoration application within limitation. Is the respondent's advocate required to obtain and file a fresh Vakalatnama to appear in the restoration proceedings, or can the advocate continue on the basis of the original Vakalatnama already on record? If the restoration application is handled by same advocate, who handled the main appeal, Then again the sign of respondent is needed in vakalatnama?

Yes. A fresh vakalatnama shall be filed, so it requires a signature.

When same advocate continues for restoration of appeal, fresh vakalatnama is not required.

Fresh vakalatnama is not required if same Advocate appears in restoration petition.

If the same advocate handles this restoration petition too, then there is no necessity for fresh vakalatnama
