I assume as anyone can represent themselves in court, can someone with an online law degree represent family or others in court(or in any court in India), even with their permission? Does the inability to practice law in court because of an online degree restrict this?

Please answer purly from legal and procedural standpoint, kindly don’t answer from should be or should not be perspective.

There’s a provision of “petitioner in person”.

However, please note that you need to be on the ball and have everything in order because judges like to roast non-lawyers.

You need to not only know how to present your case in court, but also the back end stuff like filing, ahlmad etc.

Thanks, if judges like to roast non-lawyers for procedures(which is fair) , I assume so will they to lawyers, but if judges are ok or linient with lawyers making mistakes while filing then that’s hypocrisy.

You may represent yourself “pro se”(unwise to do so) but not others.
Courts do not entertain online or distance learning law degrees favourably.
