I fought out a case in Delhi High Court way back between 1980 and 1983. At a particular juncture, my lawyer needed an adjournment and was sure he won't get it if he himself appeared and asked for it. I was wondering how he was going to manage the adjournment. He sent one of his juniors - a pretty young girl with me to the Court and just as the lawyer expected, the girl could easily get the job done without any argument within minutes.
