My birth certificate is still pending from the municipality, and I’ve received a court summons. Sadly, I can’t make it on the scheduled date due to work commitments. The case hasn’t been assigned a number yet. Can my local lawyer appear on my behalf, even without my presence?

Yes, your local lawyer can appear on your behalf even without your presence. However, they will need proper authorization from you, such as a power of attorney, to represent you legally in court.

I explained I was at work during the visit and provided proof, but the verification department sent an adverse report and a show cause notice. What should I do?

Previous Article Working as a Class III employee, I was unofficially assigned clerical duties for 15 years. After this period, I was sent back to my original role. I appealed to the Andhra Pradesh High Court, which ruled in my favor, ordering my employer to keep me in a clerical position. However, despite the court’s decisions, my employer continues to resist the orders, hiring expensive legal representation. I have strong evidence proving my 15 years of clerical work, but my employer refuses to acknowledge it, potentially to avoid fulfilling their obligations.
