This is grave professional misconduct.
Lodge complaint with Bar Council. his license is likely to be revoked for sure.
Inform this fact to the court as well.

You can follow the advice of Mr. Devajyyothi Barman and Mr. Rajendra K Goyal.
Its an unethical practice and no one including legal fraternity shall encourage or support this type of practice. Stringent action has to be taken on those professionals who does not have good conduct towards their profession.
