420 advocate

(Querist) 02 March 2018 This query is : Resolved 
I am the resident of Telangana state. There are some personal disputes between me and my family members, for which I have visited Smt. Shalini Chennamaraju in January 2017, as she put a board of ‘Advocate’ in front of her residence, which is located nearby to my house. I explained her about the issue in dispute for which Smt. Shalini Chennamaraju made me believe that she is an advocate and further assured to look after all the disputes and to prosecute the same before the court of law. I have sincerely believed her version and handed over the required papers/documents to her to prosecute my cases. As per the demand of said Smt. Shalini Chennamaraju of Rs 1 lakh per case, I have also paid Rs.40,000/- to her in the month of January, 2017 with fond hope that she may look after the case proceedings. She also handed over her visiting card to me reinforcing as an Advocate and took signatures from me and my mother on two vakalathnamas for prosecuting the cases in the court of law.

Thereafter, several times I have visited the residence of Smt. Shalini Chennamaraju and enquired with regard to the case proceedings. But for some time there was no response on her end. Thereafter she is not available at her residence for which I have made several rounds to the house of said Smt. Shalini Chennamaraju. But there was no fruitful result to me in proceeding with my cases, for my grievance.

I submit that thereafter I have started enquiry with regard to said Smt. Shalini Chennamaraju and during the said course, I have also met with the President and the General Secretary Of Bar Association, Warangal in the month of August 2017. To my utter shock and surprise I came to know that no such person is enrolled in any Bar Association. For which I have also visited the house of said Smt. Shalini Chennamaraju to take my papers/documents as well as the amount paid to her towards fee. But all my efforts are proved futile. She is abusing me in filthy and unparliamentary language and attacking me physically along with her bodyguards and her followers/supporters. I fear threat and danger to my life from Shalini chennamaraju along with her bodyguard and her several followers/supporters.

All this period, she delayed the proceedings going to be preferred before the court of law. I have made all my possible efforts to get back my documents and my money paid to her. But all my possible efforts are proved futile. In these circumstances, I approached nearest PS in the month of September 2017 but they filed an FIR only in the month of Feb 2018 and no arrests have been made till date. The Police have delayed FIR with a malaFide intention so as to allow shalini chennamaraju to obtain enrollment in the month of October 2017. I have also written to BAR of AP for cancellation of her enrollment , but have not received any reply so far.

I request the esteemed panel of expertise to guide me to take further appropriate steps against said Smt. Shalini Chennamaraju who deceived me and cheated me and took huge sums of money from me and thus render justice to me for which act of kindness I shall ever be grateful to you.

Thanking you in anticipation.

But why is the BAR association silent? Aren't they supposed to seal her license?

Bar association has nothing to do with the advocate or person who represent as advocate but is not even enrolled as one with the State Bar Council.
The person who misrepresented you as advocate but was still not enrolled as one with the State Bar Council cheated you for which FIR against her should be registered and if Police not doing it move the court of judicial magistrate of the police station area u/s section 156 Cr.P.C for order of registering FIR against her.
The person's misconduct before she got enrolled as advocate may not attract the rules of the State Bar Council however a formal complaint for the same may even be filled with the State Bar Council.

If your version is true, lodge complaint with the help of reputed law firm.

Vijay sir, yes I have written to the bar council of AP.

The police say that even if a person doesn't have an enrollment in any BAR , they can still put up an advocate board or make a visiting card or create a stamp and collect fee and practice. It is sufficient that they complete their LLB and have all valid certificates. The police are threatning that they will close the case post investigation.....

What other remedies can I seek....

Police of your district is misinformed and lack knowledge about legal practise as provided under the Advocate Act, which u/s 33 clearly provides : Advocates alone entitled to practice-
Except as otherwise provided in this Act or in any other law for the time being in force, no person shall, on or after the appointed day, be entitled to practice in any court or before any authority or person unless he is enrolled as an advocate under this Act.
You should meet the Higher Police Officer of the Rank of Deputy Commissioner for registering the FIR or move application to the Judicial Magistrate.

Involve your community leaders, media and meet CP...and lodge complaint under proper acknowledgment..

A lawyer/Law firm worth his/her IT's salt may not refuse to handle the case...
