Now i want to know that was it necessay to take permission from department before appearing as witness in my familly matter ?
Hello,
It is not necessary to inform the department if you are appearing before the court as a witness, in case had you been appearing as accused then it would have been necessary.
Also there is no problem if you inform the department about the same. Although the head of personal and family matter will cover your also.
Regards
No you were not required to take any permission in view of the fact that you in any case were on leave on that day. No need to worry at all.
You don't need permission from your employer to appear as witness
You were on leave and can appear as witness in court of law
No sir ,,,you are not under any legal liability to inform your department .. Since you are only a witness you can give statement and appear before court to follow the trial of your sister( if you want)..
1. If you are summoned to appear as witness in court then you must inform the court this reason.
2.While applying for leave you can inform the employer about this.This is valid reason to get leave.
3. No harm would be caused to your service record for giving evidence in court.
Hi, There is no need to take permission from the Department for appearing before the Court as Witness in personal case.
1. you have to show that you was present in that ceremony then your evidence shall be admitted by the court.
2. whether you had proper permission or not is the subject matter of department and you cannot be penalised by the court in this case and also it may cause no effect on your evidence.
3. if you attended this ceremony after office hour then no action can be taken against you.
4. if you attended this ceremony in office hour and did not take leave from office then department can deduct 1/30 part from your salary.
1. You told the department that you have 'personal work'. Testifying in a court as a witness in relation to the dowry case filed by your sister is indeed a personal work.
2. No permission is required to be obtained from department to appear as a witness in a court proceeding.
There is no necessity to take permission from department for deposing evidence before court.
You may apply for leave mentioning the correct reason on the date of hearing.
