    My dear friends at the @quint.
    I have to say it is wonderful to see your videos, the information shared and the painstaking research which it must go through can be imagined and understood. As a lawyer myself, i have to say research and editing which one has to go through to end up with some usable content ia a painstaking and demanding job.
    That said, certain matters are out of the purview of a common man. This video for instance is an example of such matters. What the lawyers address the Judges and wat the judges like to be addressed is none of the commoner's business.
    Similarly certain institutions and their bylaws that govern the internal matters of the institute are not to be a subject of discussion. For making you better understand this so that you can relate, If the editor at Quint calls and refers to his seniors as Mr.Moron or mr.Buffon..have nothing to do with the public at large.
    I advice you to put this video down at once as this is an internal matter and you or the public at large lack jurisdiction. To end it quint style .. Jab Miya Biwi ho Razi , kyun taang ladatey ho Qazi!.

    saying "your honour", "Me lord" or lordship are english terms used by solicitors to adress their proceedings in the engish House of lords. since we dont have that, it is correct that we just call them sir, or dont refer the judge at all. since india is a democracy, the judge does not need to be adressed. "Honorable court" would be quite enough
