The Supreme Court on Tuesday sought comments from Pakistan and Punjab bar councils regarding teaching of petitions’ drafting in law colleges.
The court sought the comments from the bar councils after it noted flaws in the drafting of a petition during hearing of a case pertaining to a conflict of land distribution. It, however, noted that the bar councils had no connection with the case.
Expressing his displeasure over mistakes in the petition, Chief Justice of Pakistan Qazi Faez Esa wondered when the lawyers of Punjab would learn to write a writ petition. Should all the law colleges of Punjab be closed, he asked.
He remarked that the purpose of hiring a lawyer was to draft a writ petition, and submit it after its vetting.
