While adding index to Chapter 11 #Vedic #Courts in Tamil Nadu, the Land of Vedas (#TTLV) authored by my father Dr. #Nagaswamy, I came across this fantastic reference that Appa quotes "Ancient Hindu Judicature" authored by G.R. Rao in the year 1920.

A must read for every #Indian #Lawyer to understand our #ancient #Indian #Law #Code.

Appa writes "Yājñavalkya was an extraordinary personality whose code is admired even by modern exponents of Law. "

@LisaBloom

The federal National Labor Relations Act prohibits retaliation against groups of employees working together in in a concerted action seeking better employment conditions.

Here’s how this could work for Twitter workers facing “opt in or be fired” choice today.

#TwitterLayoffs

Twitter employees can opt in to Musk’s “bend the knee” mandate to hold onto their jobs.
Then a small brave group could approach management and state that while everyone is willing to work hard and strive for excellence, they oppose the mandate of “long hours at high intensity.”

Requests like this are always best done respectful and in writing so it’s clear later exactly what was said.

While NRLA generally protects union organizing activities, it also protects nonunion workers simply working together (must be 2 or more) for better working conditions.

1/ #CC0: What is it and what does it mean for NFT creators and holders?

My two cents, in a 39-tweet 🧵👇

2/ As a commercial #lawyer, with a strong background in #intellectualproperty, the #NFT industry has been a fascinating case study in the development and evolution of IP rights related to digital artworks and other media formats.

3/ Lots of threads have been published regarding the big question of whether NFTs in general and generative artworks, in particular, are copyrightable under US law.

If you haven't, you can start by watching my recent lecture at @EthCC, Paris, last month:

Thread (1 to 13) "Sir, how to write judgements? I am preparing for #judiciary exams" asked a final year law student.

1/ I have no idea whatsoever about how judiciary exams are being conducted and what types of judgements they want candidates to write in exam.

2/ But this post can give you my perspectives on judgement writing.

First, in your mind, replace word "Judgement" with word "Opinion".

3/ A trial court's Judgement is only a Trial Court Judge's written opinion about case before him.

Thread : To persuade young #lawyers to sacrifice something in order to get long term benifits.

1/ Are you willing to sacrifice something for a better future? Then the following example may inspire you.

#lawyers #lawstudents #students #lawtwitter

2/ It was around 1991. I was preparing for AOR Supreme Court Exam. It was my first attempt at this exam. I had rented one room at about 200 feet distance away from my house.

In this room, I used to go to read for about 8 hours a day.

I used to study alone.

3/ (In 1975 around, I had picked up a quote from a book, "Isolation and Discipline are essential for progress of an Individual". I used to follow this concept wherever I can.)

Thread : What care a #law #student should take while sitting in library, and digesting law #books? How should he navigate through thousands of books in law library of #college? What books to read and what to ignore?

1) The topic of this thread itself is complicated.

2/ But once I was also a law student. (In 1977). All the law books in law college library amazed me! It looked as if each book was radiating powers of the good over the evil. I had dreams of power and wealth and these books looked like my passport to a golden future.

3/ Do not blame me, if after reading this thread you become demotivated to read those AMAZING law books.

I may have tell you something which may not be found in ANY law book of ANY law college.

I have no option but to start criminal proceedings against Vedantu. Any experienced criminal lawyer based in Delhi/NCR who can help on this pro bono?

I really hope no one has to go through this. Last 3 months have been extremely difficult for us. @malpani #lawyer

Vedantu signed an agreement with JustBurstOut for developing content for 6000+ pages- 40 lacs words of content. All the delivered content has been live on their website since January and we are still chasing for our payment.

When we posted about the payment default on social media, they sent us legal notices mentioning breach of contract. We told them to remove our content if they do not want to pay. Shameless founders of this company are neither paying us nor removing our content from their website.

1/ Meeting with REALITY of Legal Profession in India.

It was June 1982. My first day in court. I went in Chief Judicial Magistrate Court to see court proceedings.

There is Prohibition Law in Gujarat since Independance Day.

The poor, who were found drunk are arrested and

2/ are being tried in court of law.

The whole courtroom was crowded and there was a strong smell of alcohol in the air.

The defense counsel was also fully drunk.

Alcohol Smell was coming out from his mouth every time he was making submissions to Judge.

3/ The Judge was fully focused on the case on hand. He chose to ignore that defense counsel was also fully drunk and he was liable to be sent to jail.. The Judge simply ignored the smell.

This was my first day in court. I learned that in this legal profession,

Thread : Four questions that may predict success of lawyer.

1/ Suppose you do have a abilty to read a law report and to make notes from that.

But do you also have ability to do the same when heat is 47 C and when there is no air conditioner?

#lawyers #lawstudents

2/ Do you have that abilty even when you are very much tired and feeling very sleepy ?

You may have ability to read any law report when you are required to do so for a case. But suppose, in your free time you are sitting in a court's law library,

3/ do you feel like opening any law report randomly and to start reading it randomly?

Suppose you have come to court but you have no case today. Do you feel like going and sitting in court of a most boring and most rude judge, a judge who keeps insulting lawyers one by one?

About usefulness or not usefulness of Reading Books of Famous Lawyers:

As a young lawyer, I too read such books. They inspired and I hoped that reading them would improve my English expressions and use of idioms and phrases.

But after many years now, I have different views.

2/ I have found that such books have not helped me in my journey.

Some of these books were just showcases of their intelligence.

In some books they just tried to transfer their unfulfilled arguments, dreams, Just as our parents wanted us to pursue their dreams..

3/ None of the books which I read was specially written to empower Lawstudents or young lawyers. This was their last consideration.

Successful lawyers of these books had different circumstances, different education,
Their parents were different. Their cities were different.

Thread to explain "How murders are punished in India, in accordance with degrees of murders and why law to give death sentence to child rapist may not stand scrutiny of Judges, and why there is trend to impose reformative punishments"

1) You may find this thread interesting.

2/ This thread may be long as it is very difficult to explain these concepts in short. But it will Not be a very long thread.

3/ Know that in India, there is no detailed classification of different types of murders as First Degree Murder, Second Degree Murder etc.

Thread "How to argue in court" - an easy to understand explanation to day to day Court Language.

1) First learn, "What is a Statement and how to make a statement to open an argument in a court.

a) "Defendant is fraud" This is your opinion. This is not

#lawyers #lawstudents

2/ a Statement for purpose of argument.

b) "Defendant has cheated me." This is again, your opinion. This is not a Statement for purpose of argument.

c) "Defendant cheated me of 50 lakh rupees by giving promise of giving a flat". This can do. The Judge

#lawyers #lawstudebt

3/ can understand what is your problem.

Judge can then ask you, "Why do you say so? What is your basis for saying so?"

Now here you are supposed to answer with some evidence (documents or other things) from which it is obvious that you might be speaking truth.

Thread on need for lawyers and lawstudents to participate in public debates

1/ If you are a lawyer or law student, I can say,

"Vasant J Desai, my senior, used to say, 'Contribution of thoughts is the greatest contribution one can make to mankind'

#lawyers #lawstudents

2/ You can contribute your own thoughts on social media on any platform..

It may also improve your verbal expressions and presentation writing skills.

#lawyer #law #socialmedia #lawstudents

3/ It can also improve your arguments in courts.

Expressing one's thoughts, coherently, in a string of words is a skill required in legal profession..

There need to be an order and a subtle curtsey to opposite side, in whatever we may say.

Don’t take God out of your matter. I am a full time lawyer and as an immigrant, I would have lived in the UK for 32 years by the 8th of February 2022.

In finding my feet, getting married, having children, raising children, building my career and my ministry,

I can see the hand of God in my matters. Even at the height of attacks to destroy me and my ministry, God showed up.

If you are discouraged, tired, weak, betrayed, jilted, going through family or career issues, I believe I am well positioned to help you through counseling

online or face to face meetings. As a professional, I believe I can help fellow professionals. Don’t die of depression or die of stress. I was inspired to reach out to you wherever you are today. I have helped millions through my daily TV programmes for the past 17 years and

@IrishWomenin

Louisa Westropp (born 1858), following a marriage characterised by constant domestic violence, sued her husband for divorce on the grounds of cruelty. Before Irish independence, cruelty was, in theory, legal grounds for divorce.....
1/9
#IrishWomenInHistory #NollaigNamBan

..... but men were considered to have the right to physically 'chastise' their wives, as women at that time had few rights (including the right to custody of their own children) cruelty was almost never cited in #divorce proceedings.

#IrishWomenInHistory #NollaigNamBan

It was the first time an #Irish #woman sued her husband for divorce on grounds of cruelty, and it set a legal precedent. Terrible as things were for Louisa, they were much worse for women from less wealthy backgrounds.

fyi Colorado,

opioid money isn't going towards addiction spending,
its going into the general budget
the-journal.com/articles/plans… #opioids #colorado #government #politics #sackler #purdue #opioidcrisis

"Under the framework, 60% of Colorado’s settlement proceeds will be distributed to 19 regions of the state. Regional Governance Councils, made up of local leaders from each region, will make decisions about how to spend the money & provide reports"

there is nothing that says this money has to be spent on addiction services, NOTHING

That sweet sweet opioid litigation money is going to general budgets & pet projects,

I feel I must make this PSA: If you are considering financing anything through @CapitalOne, be very cautious. I have now gone 10 months without being able to legally drive my vehicle due to negligence on capital ones behalf, and they are trying to take zero responsibility for it.

I have been a long time customer, have 100% on time payment records, and continue to make a truck payment while unemployed for five months during Covid. Capital one’s negligence not only cost me a ton of stress, but made it impossible for me to take jobs due to the fact that I

did not have a legal vehicle. It has been approximately two years since I refinance through them and they have still failed to properly transfer my information so that I can register this. I have spent so much time and effort taking off of work, lost money, paid fees to the DMV,
