In the recent past two High Court judges have succumbed to Covid19. Several others were infected in the past. Judges and lawyers braving odds are like frontline warriors fighting to keep the Justice Delivery System alive often throwing caution to the winds. RAJU Z. MORAY takes a poetic view of these aspects..—–.Just when we were being told.There's nothing to fear or dread.In Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh.Two High Court judges are dead.Unlocked lawyers crowd courts.No one can take them to task.Social Distancing is impossible.Arguments suffocate in a mask.Still many prefer the physical.Though virtual is convenient.The administration also tends to.Ignore the proper for the expedient.Bar Associations are suggesting.To try a listing system that's hybrid.Encouraging lawyers participation.Yet not assisting spread of COVID.Justice delivery is paralysed.Pending cases continue to mount.In quick admissions and disposals.The virus has a far better count!.Government wants everything open.Dishes statistics, claims they don't lie.It expects us to be obedient citizens.Not ask how and why so many die..(Raju Z Moray is an advocate who practices law in the Bombay High Court when not puncturing bloated egos. He is the creator of 'Gobble D. Gook', his alter-ego, who figured in the 'Court Jester' columns of 'The Lawyers'.)
