For young Lawyers: Address Lady Judges also as "My Lords" or "Your Ladyships" only. Do not address them as "Your Ladyships"

Standard

Recently, I heard this in one court room of Supreme Court.
A young lady advocate, hardly of an experience of one year at Bar, was arguing a matter involving a couple of crores of rupees.
One Judge on Bench was a Lady Judge.
She was obviously irritated because the lady advocate was again and again addressing her as “Your Ladyships”
Finally, the Lady Judge asked her, “Don’t you know that in General Clauses Act, word “Your Lordships” include lady judges also?”

If you find a Gold Mine, what will you do? Will you tweet about it? What will you do?

Standard

Most probably, you will start digging gold mine without tweeting about it.

Most probably, you will sign out from twitter and will devote full time to Gold digging.

May be you will work for maximum hours, sometimes till late night.

A Senior Advocate once said, “I earn so much that I hardly have anytime to spend money”.

Another, leading Senior Advocate said, that in order to reduce work, I increased my fees.

The work, instead of reducing, increased.

The more I increase fee, the more work I get and the less time I have”

Have misplaced our Map of Life? Have we become a money driven civilisation ?
