Frontloading and the Innovations in the High Court Rule has killed Advocacy This is a statement made by a SAN in court sometime ago before my case was called up. He said this in a brief tete a tete with the Judge in the course of doing his case. His arguement was in the main that he enjoyed leading witnesses in chief with the attendant objections in opposing leading questions, then the address stage which was oral allowed him to showboat as an advocate speaking high sounding English and flibustering with the Law. That the present era has taken the shine off through adoption of written address. Also that front loading sort of cheapened litigation allowing green horns to rub shoulders with the Big Wigs. Do you agree? Lets hear your views.
