criminal case in the cross examination to begin
when I met lawyer in the morning, he said he will come for cross examination
junior lawyer came to the after call work and he went out . I was not aware he went out.
when case was called for cross examination, both senior and junior lawyers were not in the court
I went in when the case was called , they asked me where is the lawyer.
immediately I called the junior lawyer , he was coming but very slowly without concern. He came in, he did not speak anything. Nothing is communicated to me. Judge simply put the penalty and gave next date.
.
I am paying fee to the lawyer, attending the court by traveling 400KM.
what is my fault in this scenario.
Who has to pay the penalty, Me or Advocate?
From the narrative it is inferred that the lawyer has committed the mistake which is unaccepable.
After the receipt of money for the service, there must be justice to the layman.
