The Jharkhand High Court Advocates Association has issued a stern warning to lawyers, urging them to maintain professional propriety or face repercussions. The body specifically targets those perceived as engaging in ‘reel‑making’ practices.
The Jharkhand High Court Advocates Association (JHCAA) released a statement today, cautioning lawyers who are perceived to be involved in ‘reel‑making’ activities. The association emphasized that such conduct undermines the dignity of the legal profession and warned that non‑compliance could lead to disciplinary action.
In its communication, the JHCAA urged members to adhere strictly to the Code of Conduct for Advocates and to avoid any behavior that could be construed as unprofessional or sensationalist. The body made it clear that maintaining propriety is essential for preserving public trust in the judiciary.
The warning comes amid growing concerns about the portrayal of legal proceedings in media and the potential for sensationalism to distort public perception. While the JHCAA did not specify particular incidents, it reaffirmed its commitment to upholding ethical standards among its members.
Lawyers in Jharkhand are expected to respond to the association’s directive and ensure that their conduct aligns with the established norms of the profession.
