Professional misconduct

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 19 July 2010 This query is : Resolved
I had filed a petition in the high court .An advocate of the opposite party filed wrong affidavit and provided false information to the highcourt. The petition was withdrawn by our lawyer for unknown reasons without our consent. I do have full proof that the lawyer had provided false information to high court.
These is professional misconduct from both the lawyers. What should I do ? While withdrawing the petition my lawyer granted liberty for filing the petition again which was granted. Can I file a petition again with reference to all earlier petitions and submissions ? Though the petition was withdrawn in dec 2009, my lawyer has not provided me verbatim, file notings and the final order copy from the court . What should I do ?

Instead of filing petition before High Court, make a complaint against your lawyer to bar Council of that particular State and petition before High Court against the opposite party for filing false affidavit to initiate proceeding under section 340 Cr. P. C. and then file a consumer complaint against your lawyer seeking compensation.

Yes, rightly advised with one small correction that the supreme court is yet to decide as to whether the lawyers can be brought to consumer forum.
