ORDER : ANOOP KUMAR DHAND, J. Support growth, respect young talent and help to create a legal system where every young budding lawyer feels confident and helpful. 1. Matter comes upon misc. application No. 1592/2018 filed by the applicant under Section 5 of the Limitation Act seeking condonation of 450 days delay in filing the appeal. 2. Counsel for the appellants submits that the appellants could not contact their counsel and as such they were unaware about the impugned judgment dated 10.01.2017 being passed by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Dausa (hereinafter referred to as ‘Tribunal’). Hence, the delay has occurred in filing the instant appeal and the same be condoned as the amount of compensation so awarded by the Tribunal is inadequate and the instant appeal has been filed by the appellants seeking enhancement of the amount of compensation. 3. This Court is not satisfied with the reasons/explanation given for the inordinate delay of 450 days but looking to the fact that important questions of law and facts are involved in this appeal, the application stands allowed subject to deposition of cost of Rs. 11,000/- in the “Junior Advocates Welfare Fund for purchasing Law Books” with the Rajasthan High Court Bar Association, Jaipur. 4. The reason for passing this order is that this Court is aware about the practical difficulties being faced by the young junior Advocates having practice of less than 5 years. The first generation young budding lawyers have no support to establish their practice and they have no resources to purchase the necessary law books, which are required by them every day. 5. Becoming a lawyer is a proud moment. After years of study, many young people enter courts with hope and confidence. They want to learn, grow, and serve justice. These new lawyers are often referred to as Young Advocates. Their journey starts with big dreams, but the reality of court life is not easy. Long working hours, low income, lack of space, and little guidance make the early years stressful. Young Advocates work hard every day. They prepare case files, read laws, assist seniors, and wait for long hours in courts. Still, their efforts often go unnoticed. A strong legal system needs strong Young Advocates. If they get proper support in the beginning, they can become honest and skilled professionals. Helping Young Advocates is not a favor. Young Advocates work hard every day. They prepare case files, read laws, assist seniors, and wait for long hours in courts. Still, their efforts often go unnoticed. A strong legal system needs strong Young Advocates. If they get proper support in the beginning, they can become honest and skilled professionals. Helping Young Advocates is not a favor. There is a need for a better justice system. 6. Young Advocates are lawyers who are in the first few years of their legal practice. This is the learning stage of their career. During this time, they understand court procedures, drafting, client handling, and professional behavior. The legal system depends heavily on these Young Advocates. They do research work, prepare documents, and support senior lawyers in court cases. They bring fresh thinking and new energy to the system. When Young Advocates grow well, courts work better. When they feel ignored, the system becomes weak. Supporting them helps build a strong future for law and justice. 7. Junior young lawyers, particularly first generation Advocates face significant hurdles in establishing their practice, which is further exacerbated by lack of access to necessary law books. Without access to necessary law books, they struggle to prepare cases efficiently. Many beginners cannot afford to purchase the necessary books; which can limit their independent growth and professional development. 8. Money problems are very common for Young Advocates. In the early years, income is not fixed. Some months pass without any earning. Daily expenses like travel, food, books, and rent continue to rise. Many Young Advocates depend on their families even after starting practice. They work long hours but earn very little. This creates stress and affects confidence. Some talented Young Advocates leave the profession due to financial pressure. If basic financial help is provided during the early years, many problems can be reduced. Small support can help Young Advocates focus on learning and improving their skills. 9. A lawyer needs a place to sit, read files, and prepare work. Sadly, many courts do not provide proper seating to Young Advocates. They stand in corridors with files in hand. This affects their dignity and work quality. Young Advocates need shared chambers or fixed seating in courts. Even a simple table and chair can make a big difference. Proper seating helps them work with focus and respect. When Young Advocates get basic facilities, court work becomes smoother and more organized. 10. They stand in corridors with files in hand. This affects their dignity and work quality. Young Advocates need shared chambers or fixed seating in courts. Even a simple table and chair can make a big difference. Proper seating helps them work with focus and respect. When Young Advocates get basic facilities, court work becomes smoother and more organized. 10. Practical law is learned from experience and guidance. Young Advocates need seniors who can guide them. But many do not get proper mentorship. Seniors are busy, and structured guidance is often missing. Because of this, Young Advocates learn slowly and make mistakes. Mentorship programs can help a lot. Regular guidance sessions, open discussions, and learning support can improve confidence. When seniors guide juniors, the profession grows with honesty and skill. 11. Welfare schemes are important for Young Advocates. Health support, accident help, and emergency funds can protect them during difficult times. Many such schemes exist, but awareness is low. Information about these schemes should be clear and easy to access. Forms should be simple, and help desks should guide Young Advocates properly. When they feel safe and supported, they work with peace of mind and confidence. 12. Bar Councils play a key role in the lives of Young Advocates. They can provide training programs, welfare support, and proper court facilities. When Bar Councils listen to Young Advocates, real problems get solved. Skill training, legal updates, and digital learning tools help Young Advocates grow faster. Bar Councils can also help in providing seating and shared chambers. Honest and active support builds trust and improves the legal profession. 13. The legal system must plan for the future. Young Advocates need fair support in their early years. Fixed training support, shared chambers after some years, and mental health care can bring positive change. Digital systems can reduce stress and save time. Respectful behavior in courts builds confidence. When Young Advocates feel valued, they perform better. Supporting them today ensures skilled and honest legal professionals tomorrow. 14. Every senior lawyer was once a Young Advocate. The early struggle is real, but proper support can change everything. When Young Advocates receive guidance, respect, and basic facilities, the legal system becomes stronger. A fair and healthy legal system starts by caring for its young professionals. Support Young Advocates today to build a better and trusted justice system for the future. The early struggle is real, but proper support can change everything.
