LawZ Magazine - July 2019

I denne utgaven

We talk about how essential it is to protect the interest of the consumer and to help the advertiser to desist from using deceptive advertising practices. With the widespread use of advertising, came many of the typical advertising abuses such as false claims, where the advertisers claim that their product does something that other products fail to do. Such deceptive practices often find consumers stranded at the mercy of the advertisers.
We also try to talk about the complaint of sexual harassment against the Hon’ble Mr. Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi. Disregarding the request for a ‘special inquiry committee’, the Supreme Court had instead set up an in-house Committee comprising three judges who are junior to the Chief Justice, namely Justice Bobde, and Justice Justices Indu Malhotra and Indira Banerjee as additional members. Was the legal principle inter alia audi aultrem partem violated and justice denied.
Finally, we discuss about the litigation that is usual in matrimonial disputes. The husbands often charge against his wives that she is not leading a moral life and she is living in adultery. One husband alleged that as such his wife have illicit relations and the child doesn’t belong to the husband and demanded a DNA test of the child to prove that she has an illicit relation and child is the result of that relations. Can such a case be generalized through out the nation, think about it.

LawZ Magazine Description:

LawZ released its first issue in August, 2001. The intent was to create a magazine about the law and the legal field, but with a difference. LawZ is India s first comprehensive monthly law magazine for all.The magazine not only covers events relating to the Indian legal system but also makes an effort in comparing it with the legal systems across the globe.

Instead of being of interest only to lawyers and others involved in the legal profession, the aim was to create something that could be read, understood, and even enjoyed by those who do not have formal knowledge of law. In short, it was to be more than a dry, ponderous collection of articles written in the oft arcane language of the court. Nor was it to focus solely on India, because today no news is complete unless it touches on the world at large.

The magazine reaches to all the judges of the Supreme Court, High Courts, Bar Council of India, Lawyers, Law Colleges and Institutions, top Indian and foreign Law Firms, Indian Corporates and Multinational Companies and Legal departments of government and Semi-government agencies, Corporate houses and several Embassies.

The magazine is presently in its 15th year of publication and is receiving tremendous response and appreciation from all the sections of the society and today is the only legal magazine, which has attained its present status in such a short span of time.

We’ve come a long way since our first issue. Today, it is regarded as a benchmark and a trailblazer in legal journalism.
