Justice GS Patel is informed in a case that a lawyer who earlier appeared for the defendant has now appeared for the plaintiff.
I know our standards have slipped but this much!?
There is no consideration of any consequence any longer.
Justice Patel: What happened to our ability to say no!
I don’t understand how this lawyer entertained the plaintiff in his office, forget about drafting the plaint, and taking instructions. Is it possible to say that, that was a different matter.. Really?

Maybe we should just shop on the original side and go! Just close it down. Because then this has become a market place.
