SPECIAL LEAVE PETITION
Under Article 136, the Constitution of India gives power to the Supreme Court to grant special permission or leave to an aggrieved party to appeal against an order passed in any of the lower courts or tribunals in India.
MEANING OF SPECIAL LEAVE PETITION
A special leave petition (SLP) means that an individual takes special permission to be heard in an appeal against any high court/tribunal verdict. Thus it is not an appeal but a petition filed for an appeal. So after an SLP is filed, the Supreme Court may hear the matter and if it deems fit, it may grant the ‘leave’ and convert that petition into an ‘appeal’. SLP shall then become an Appeal and the Court will hear the matter and pass a judgment.
SLP CAN BE PRESENTED UNDER FOLLOWING CIRCUMSTANCE
It can be filed against any judgment or decree or order of any high court /tribunal in the territory of India, or
It can be filed in case a high court refuses to grant the certificate of fitness for appeal to the Supreme Court of India.
TIME LIMIT TO FILE SLP
It can be filed against any judgment of a high court within 90 days from the date of judgment, or
It can be filed within 60 days against the order of a high court refusing to grant the certificate of fitness for appeal to the Supreme Court.
WHO CAN FILE SLP
Any aggrieved party can file an SLP against the judgment or order of refusal of grant of certificate.
DISCRETIONARY POWER
Appeal to Supreme Court is not a matter of right but it is a matter of privilege which only the Supreme Court will grant to any individual if there exists an important constitutional or legal issue involved. Appeals are regulated by the Constitution of India and Supreme Court Rules, 2013.
According to Article 141 of the Indian Constitution, the Supreme Court’s judgment is declared as law of the land and is binding on all courts in India.
Section 304B of the Indian Penal Code states that if a woman dies within seven years of marriage by any burns or bodily injury or it was revealed that before her marriage she was exposed to cruelty or harassment by her husband or any other relative of the husband in connection to demand dowry then the death of the woman will be considered as dowry death.
•Habeas Corpus: The Latin term habeas corpus means 'you must have the body ' and a writ for securing the liberty was called habeas corpus ad. By this writ, the court directs the person or authority who has detained another person to bring the body of the prisoner before the court so as to enable the court to decide the validity, jurisdiction, or justification for such detention. •Quo Warranto The term quo warranty means what is your authority. The writ of quo warranto is used to judicially control executive action in the matter of making appointments to public offices under relevant statutory provisions. Quo warranto prevents illegal usurpation of public office by an individual •Mandamus Mandamus is a command issued by a court to an authority directing it to perform a public duty imposed upon it by law. •Certiorari A type of writ, meant for rare use, by which an appellate court decides to review a case at its discretion •Prohibition A writ of prohibition is a writ directing a subordinate to stop doing something the law prohibits. This writ is often issued by a superior court to the lower court directing it not to proceed with a case that does not fall under its jurisdiction.

Forms a part of the basic structure of the constitution
Article 14 of the constitution states that:
“The State shall not deny to any person equality before the law or the equal protection of the laws within the territory of India.”
This article constitutes of 2 parts:
-
Equality before law and
-
Equal protection of the laws.
The word law used in both the expressions mean differently. In first expression it is used in the Philosophical sense and in the latter it is used to denote specific laws in force.
Equality before the law talks about equal subjection of all citizens (rich or poor, high or low, official or non-official) to the ordinary law of the land administered by the ordinary law courts and is a negative concept as implies the absence of any privilege in favor of any individual and equal subjection of all classes to the ordinary law. Whereas, equal protection of the laws is a Positive Concept as it implies equality of treatment in equal circumstances both in privileges conferred and liabilities imposed. So, all the persons must be treated alike on reasonable classification. Among equals, law should be equal and equally administered. The guarantee of equal protection applies against substantive as well as procedural laws.

I also used to go with him as he wanted me to learn how courts used to work n everything. when I went to the Bombay High court for the first time I was amazed and fascinated it was very huge and clean there were floors and on each floor, there were many courtrooms where court proceedings were taken place I sat in one of the courtrooms and heard the court proceedings I noticed that speaking in English is a must all the lawyers were speaking their points very confidently. I got to learn many new things when I went to the court it was really a very nice experience for me.

The Bar Council of India (BCI) has announced its intention of banning fresh law graduates from joining the judicial services directly and instead of making them slog it out in the courts for three years first.
The BCI continues:
Most of such officers are found impolite and impractical in their behaviour with the Members of the Bar and Litigants. They have lack of understanding of the aspirations and expectations of Advocates and Litigants in the matter of proper and decent behavior.
the practical concerns against the BCI’s arguments are several:
The pendency of cases has continued rising non-stop in recent years, to which more and better judges may be one of the few effective long-term solutions.
Judicial services exams have become an increasingly popular career choice amongst fresh law graduates, including at national law and other top universities, where graduates could have chosen to join the bar or law firms.
Law firms won’t be able to absorb those law graduates, since the sector is tiny.
The first years at the bar are very hard for most freshers, unless you are well-off or have a godfather/mother in the profession, since many of the more senior lawyers at the bar don’t pay (much or at all) and the financial support provided by the bar councils is minimal.
In today's techno-savvy environment, the world is becoming more and more digitally sophisticated and so are the crimes. Internet was initially developed as a research and information sharing tool and was in an unregulated manner. As time passed by it became more transactional with e-business, e-commerce, e-governance, and e-procurement, etc. All legal issues related to internet crime are dealt with through cyber laws. Cyberlaw is important because it touches almost all aspects of transactions and activities and on involving the internet, World Wide Web, and cyberspace. Cyber Crime is not defined in the Information Technology Act 2000 nor in the National Cyber Security Policy 2013 nor in any other regulation in India. Hence, to define cyber-crime, one can say, it is just a combination of crime and computer.
In today's highly digitalized world, almost everyone is affected by cyber law.
For example:
• Almost all transactions in shares are in Demat form.
• Almost all companies extensively depend upon their computer networks and keep their valuable data in electronic form.
• Government forms including income tax returns, company law forms, etc. are now filled in electronic form.
• Consumers are increasingly using credit/debit cards for shopping.
• Most people are using email, phones, and SMS messages for communication.
• Even in noncyber cases, important evidence is found in computers/cell phones eg: in cases of murder, divorce, kidnapping, tax evasion, organized crime, terrorist operations, counterfeit currency, etc.
• Cybercrime cases such as online banking frauds, online share trading fraud, source code theft, credit card fraud, tax evasion, virus attacks, cyber sabotage, phishing attacks, email hijacking, denial of service, hacking, pornography, etc. are becoming common.
• Digital signatures and e-contracts are fast replacing the conventional method of transacting Need For Cyber Law

There are blogs and books and people that always want to advise you on how to be successful in law school. I want to tell in this video what not to do in law school. certain things are there which you should not do in law school. They are
• Skip classes – If at all possible don’t skip your lectures and classes. Its going to be tough for you to understand the legal terms and other topics if you miss lectures.
• Don’t skim reading – some of us have the problem that we read just for the sake of reading. Don’t at all do that. Whatever you read must reaf thoroughly.
• Outside job – It’s a good idea to manage your finances by your own but if you are a law student trust me you will have a hell lot of work to do with strict deadlines you just can’t manage both job and study. If you can well and good.
• Don’t get stuck with so many NGO, organisation, volunteer ship. I mean you can do it but in a limit so that it will not be a disadvantage for you.

Dear future lawyers, Time to Brace Yourself. Your legal career is going to be impacted. To minimize the impact, you can follow these 5 things:
- Personal Branding
Being on social media is one thing but creating a brand out of it is another. Build a website based or a video-based resume. Go get a domain name and do away with the traditional pdf resume.
- Communication
The legal profession is all about communication. How & what you speak matters a lot. Going live or streaming online is probably the best way to improve your communication skills.
- Copywriting Skills
I’m sure you know the difference between copyrights and copywriting. As a law student, one tends to write elaborated and stretches pieces of information and excessive usage of legal jargon.
- Upskilling
It’s time to learn the skills of the new decade. Learn about data protection, privacy laws, cryptocurrency, cyber laws, data science, trending business-related laws such as the IPR.
- Finance Skills
Since the odds of you not getting your dream job are lesser now, be ready for the worst and start learning money management and personal finance skills.
