April 21, 2025 at 11:22 amNo. Unmarried major women who cannot support themselves (this has a wider scope) as well as major sons who are unable to support themselves ( this has a narrower scope), and aged parents are all entitled to maintainence.Grant of maintainence differs on a case to case basis, but the provisions are there.

April 21, 2025 at 10:49 amOh, yes. It it absolutely illegal to smoke in public. Both the Centre and the State has passed laws against public smoking. You’ll find the exact provision in the COPT Act of 2003.The issue is, just because something is illegal doesn’t mean that the law against it is enforced; this case is no different.
My legal opinion is that even if you’re caught, the fine is like 200 rupees. So it is not really a big deal.
My personal opinion, however, is that smoking kills and it is gross. It’s best avoided.

April 21, 2025 at 9:48 amLil bro, I have done this shit with you atleast twice now. It’s getting tiring.>The onus of proving that she is not capable of supporting herself is on the petitioner.
No it’s not. Learn the basics of burden of proof. And go read a book.
>which law allows her to file a partition suit while her father is still alive ?
A regular partition suit on an ancestral property is maintainable even when the father is alive. Read a book.
>who don’t seem to have any actual clients
What you earn in a month, I probably earn in a week. Using my reddit account for free legal advice is one of my ways to give back to people, among other things.
> solicit them on social media.
Haven’t done that even once.
Chalo, shoo. I don’t have the time to deal with with idiotic frauds like you.

April 21, 2025 at 9:27 am>Given that OP recently had a high paying job and is, presumably, physically and mentally healthy, it would be difficult for her to make the case that she is incapable of supporting herself.Not entirely correct. The question the court is going to ask here is whether the daughter is capable of supporting herself presently. Whether she is capable or not is an anciliary question which has a lesser value in the court.
>OP has the right to inherit from her father’s ancestral property on his death, but she cannot ask for it while he is alive.
Completely incorrect. Right on ancestral property accrues on birth of inheritor, regardless of whether the father is alive or not.
Are you even a lawyer? All you do is give incorrect advice on this sub.

April 21, 2025 at 9:09 amSupreme Court advocate here:First of all, I am sorry you’re in this situation. No one should suffer abuse.
Now, as far as your queries are concerned:
* as long as you’re unmarried and unable to support yourself, you are entitled to maintainence. You can file a case for the same.
* your mother is also entitled to maintainence as his wife. A case can be filed for this as well, and jointly.
* you brother can also claim maintainence, as long as he is a minor. If he is a major, he will need to prove that he is financially dependent (eg, studying, or disabled, or unable to maintain himself for any reason). A case may be filed for this, also jointly.
* You’re an adult, there is no way he can force you to stay should you decide to leave. You mom can also leave if she needs to. Your brother can also leave if he is a major. If he is a minor, then he can choose to stay with his mother, or not, if the situation demands it. All in all, your father can’t force any of you to stay (I am not going to include information about his conjugal rights and their restitution thereof because doing so at this stage is premature.)
* You can file a case against him for domestic violence. File an FIR as soon as you can.
* You have a right to any property of his that is not self acquired (or more accurately, your ancestral property). You rights on his self acquired property are different, and discussing them at this stage would, again, be premature. This is notwithstanding his duty to maintain you out of his estate.In the meantime, you can optionally file an NCR at your nearest police station relaying the incident in detail, should you choose to file the FIR at a later stage.

April 21, 2025 at 7:45 amSupreme Court advocate here:What you’ve submitted isn’t really clear. I am assuming that you’re the complainant in this case, where you filed the case against the photographer for deficiency of service, and won. Correct?
If so, you have to wait for the stipulated time to elapse and then file an execution petition.
Meanwhile, try to locate the photographer if you can. You don’t need to do this (not legally, anyway) but it wouldn’t hurt.

April 21, 2025 at 6:52 amBuddy just because you can’t hack it because of your incompetence doesn’t mean others can’t either. Not everyone is meant for this field. From the looks of it, you’re not either.I am not sure which metric you employ to consider whether a person is established or not, but I am certain my practise blows your 2 bit boutique legal advice service out of the water.
Consudering how outlandish you find a young lawyer doing well makes me seriously doubt that you’re a) an advocate and b) doing well.
The amount of tax I avoid paying the govt. is probably more than what you make in a year anyway. So cope and seethe, loser.

April 21, 2025 at 5:42 amI am a Supreme Court advocate. I have my own practise here, with a fair number of clients that I represent myself.If you don’t wanna believe me, don’t. That’s your prerogative. The only way I can prove it to you is by revealing my identity, which is something I am not gonna do.
However, just because you’ve not achieved anything worthwhile in your life doesn’t mean that others haven’t, or can’t. There is no reason why a 25 year old can’t represent clients here.

April 16, 2025 at 7:20 amSupreme Court advocate here:You’re posing a very interesting question. Let’s straighten out first things first: any person who uses such a software to cheat and get a job is committing fraud. That is definitely a crime.
However, just making a software will not open you up to legal proceedings. Had that been a thing, then things like ChatGPT would’ve been outlawed already.
To be on the safe side, market your product as an assistance tool. Don’t use the word ‘cheating’ anywhere, like this site you linked does.

April 16, 2025 at 6:47 amSupreme Court advocate here:You don’t need to worry here. If your erstwhile friend claims that this money was not for a loan repayment, then he needs to prove the reason for which this payment was made; the burden of proof lies on him. Without any written agreements between the two of you, doing that is very difficult.
In the future, never pay money to anyone without a written agreement or promissory note.
