Procedure of Court in case of question being asked without reasonable grounds
AI Assist
Summary
When the court believes a question was asked without reasonable grounds and that question was put by an advocate, it may report the facts to the High Court or to the professional authority that governs that advocate. The power to report is discretionary; the court need not report in every case.
Example
Arjun, an advocate, repeatedly asks the judge whether a shopkeeper stole money despite having no evidence. The judge finds the questions baseless and sends a report about Arjun's conduct and the case circumstances to the High Court for possible disciplinary action.
Bare Act
Enacted textIf the Court is of opinion that any such question was asked without reasonable grounds, it may, if it was asked by any advocate, report the circumstances of the case to the High Court or other authority to which such advocate is subject in the exercise of his profession.
