book of aphorisms by a Pakistani lawyer

Law

In every society, the rich and the religious have been more law-abiding than the poor, because they have a stake in the observation of laws, secular or religious, for the protection of their properties and interests here and hereafter.
Only the capable are culpable.
A judge can afford to be opaque with impunity, as he has nothing to lose, but a lawyer must present his case with concern and lucidity, for he has a case and a client to lose .
The more commonplace the breach of obsolete laws is, the more society will demur at it out of the sheer exhaustion to cope with it.
If you wish to persuade a judge, it is equally important how you say as what you say .
Entry into the portal of justice is open to all those who can afford to pay fees to the lawyers for conducting protracted proceedings.
He is a rare lawyer who is a simple man.
Ignorance of the law provides for the vocation of lawyers.
If you cannot implement obsolete laws because they are harsh or impractical, you make them redundant at the best or ridiculous at the worst. Such has been the failed attempt to abolish interest from the banking system.
A curse: May you have lingering litigation in law courts.
Some judgements become historical by belying the past, distorting the present and nullifying the future, such as judgements on the Doctrine of Necessity, legalizing repeated military take overs whenever and however imposed.
If you are right and angry, you may lose the argument. If you are wrong and cool, you might winit.
If you wish to be a persuasive advocate, always smile at the judge, however dense .
No one is supposed to laugh in court, except at the insipid jokes of the
Some advocates visibly admire with profuse smiles, the trite remarks of the bench, who are waiting for their tum to come for hearing.
Justice is the bedrock of all that is good in a society, but delay and corruption in the disposal of cases has devalued its sanctity.
A brief for the lawyer takes the form of a cold structured logic, when he discards anxieties of ImII his client, which he must, for the sake of objectivity.
It is easy for a judge to be rude to a lawyer, if he forgets that he was once a lawyer.
A receiver is appointed by the comi to take over what is left over.
lflaw is more observed, it will be less enforced.
There are no human rights, if they are side-tracked by the compliant juiciary in diference to the power in the country on the basis of the doctrine of necessity; and without the country as inapplicable to the aliens as declaned by US judiciary. The United Nation’s Charter of Human Rights is still-born.
Law can make any constitutional deviation valid. It is a matter ofjudicial fiat backed by force and habitual compliance. Only moral justification of the social concience, as embedded in the independent and dauntless judges, can render it legitimate.
