ILA Rajasthan Session-Series On Drafting And Pleading

Drafting and pleading are two essential skills for lawyers and legal professionals. Drafting refers to the process of creating legal documents such as contracts, agreements, and pleadings. Pleading involves the preparation of legal documents filed with a court, such as complaints, answers, and motions.

Drafting and pleading require a combination of legal knowledge, writing ability, and attention to detail to ensure that a client’s case
is presented effectively and accurately in court.

Join us for a series of sessions with experts coming from across the country to speak on this important topic; hosted by the ILA Rajasthan chapters.

Session 1 included the fundamentals of drafting, with speaker Mr. Joveson C. J. whereas session 2 focused on notices under drafting, conducted by Dr. Vidyottma Jha. Mr. Gagan Gandhi, during session 3, covered the area of Criminal Matters.

Join us this Saturday for Session 4, which will focus on

PoSH Act – Intent vs Impact

When does an act become ‘harassment’? Is it enough if someone ‘feels’ harassed? Surely, it matters whether there was an intention to upset, annoy or harm the other? But what if there is a complete denial of any intention at all! It’s a tricky situation to navigate.

Join us for a lively debate for this month’s session on the PoSH Act – Intent vs Impact in association with the Indian Lawyers Association, where our panelists debate the difference between impact and intent, and discuss how to approach it in workplace sexual harassment complaint redressal proceedings.

Topic: PoSH Act – Intent vs Impact

Date: Thursday, 23 February 2023

Time: 4-5 pm IST
