My sister has passed away, and my mother is her legal heir. We intend to file a case for the recovery of my late sister's streedhan and other articles. I wish to conduct the case personally without engaging an advocate. Please clarify the following: 1. If my mother is the main applicant, can I appear and argue the case on her behalf without appointing an advocate? 2. Should I be impleaded as a co-applicant or legal heir to conduct the case? 3. If I am permitted to represent my mother, what authorization or permission would be required? 4. If I cannot appear on her behalf, what is the correct legal procedure for conducting the case without an advocate? 5. If we lose the case before the lower court, can I subsequently appoint an advocate and file an appeal or revision before the higher court? Please guide me on the correct legal procedure.
A party may appear and conduct their own case before the court, subject to the applicable procedural law and the court's permission where required. If your mother is the applicant, you should seek appropriate permission before representing her. You may appoint an advocate at any stage, including for filing an appeal or revision before a higher court, if necessary. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
