ABSTRACT

In the early 17th century, the influence of serjeants as a professional group declined. As a result of this, apprentices became the more important group of pleaders and were the predecessors of today’s barristers. By the middle of the 14th century, they created the Inns of Court. Although an attorney was a lawyer who represented the client in Court on the client’s behalf, he was not allowed to plead. An attorney appeared on behalf of his client. This would be clear from the French verb attorner, which means ‘to assign or depute for a particular purpose’. The attorneys’ primary function was to appear in Court to manage the litigation of the client.

Key words: Indian Judiciary, Law and the legal system, judicial administration
