Examination in chief where no advocate is hired

Examination In Chief where no advocate is hired

Is it mandatory to hire a lawyer?

 

How will Examination In Chief and  Re-examination  of the complainant be conducted in cases where the party has not engaged a lawyer? For example in a case of Ch Return Section 138 !

It is not mandatory to hire an advocate in a case. The complainant can himself file and conduct the case. When the advocate is not hired, the complainant will have to himself conduct examination-in-chief and re-examination of his witnesses (including of himself as a witness).

Although it is not mandatory to engage lawyer....You yourself can defend ur case....but while looking at the legal points of ur case...there should be a legal person to defend u.
