This email is for private circulation only to those members of the Bombay Bar Association who have chosen to receive it. Their reasons for doing so remain shrouded in mystery. This newsletter is never sent unsolicited. Often, it is never sent at all. It is, therefore, not spam. It is also not very useful. But that, as the Bishop said to the actress, is another matter altogether. Moreover and furthermore, the Bar Association doesn’t share your email address with anyone. For any reason. Period. Come to think of it, the Bar Association doesn’t share anything with anyone. We’re lawyers, remember?
