SUPREME COURT :
NO FIR AGAINST ADVOCATES AND DOCTORS
The Supreme Court of India stated:A bench of Justice P. Sthasivam and Justice Ranjan Gogoi said while giving decision that a case cannot be registered against a lawyer just because his advice was not right. The wrong advice of the lawyer can be considered negligence or professional misconduct, that too only when there is strong evidence. But in no condition the lawyer can be accused for section 420 or 109 IPC, unless there are strong evidence that establish relation of advocate with criminals involved in the case.
In an important decision Hon'ble Supreme Court of India said, that if the advise of a lawyer and Doctors goes wrong in some way, even then no case under section 420 IPC or something like that can be registered against him/her.
The Supreme Court also said that Lawyer and Doctors should take care of the interests of his/her clients.
Court also said that in professions like lawyers and doctors, the professionals cannot guarantee for the success of the case.
Courts said that the advocate cannot provide guarantee to his/her client that he would definitely win the case and nor doctor can tell his patient that his/her operations are always successful. And though these professions- doctor and lawyer can only say that they are experienced in their work and they would do their best efforts so that they are successful.
