https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=175775 Section 37(2) of the Advocates Act confers a wide appellate power on the Bar Council of India's disciplinary committee to pass such order as it deems fit, but that power must be exercised within the Act's disciplinary scheme. In disciplinary matters under Sections 35, 36, 37 and 38, the process concerns the legal profession as a whole and is not a private dispute between complainant and advocate. On that basis, the committee was not confined by technical criminal-appellate principles or autrefois acquit, and it could remand a charge for fresh reasons where the State Bar Council had not dealt with it satisfactorily. The remand was held to be within jurisdiction and valid. en-us Tue, 09 Aug 1983 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 04 Dec 2015 17:41:58 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=175775 Section 37(2) of the Advocates Act confers a wide appellate power on the Bar Council of India's disciplinary committee to pass such order as it deems fit, but that power must be exercised within the Act's disciplinary scheme.
