A Legal Issues Seminar was conducted by Devesh Kapoor, Associate, on the topic “Can a Confidentiality Club Formed for a Suit Include Parties to the Suit?”. The seminar examined the legal framework governing Confidentiality Clubs under the Delhi High Court (Original Side) Rules, 2018. The discussion traced the judicial evolution of Confidentiality Clubs, wherein these Clubs were initially restricted to external lawyers and experts but later expanded in select cases to include parties themselves. Judicial precedents were analyzed to highlight the lack of consensus on membership criteria. The session underscored the balance between safeguarding sensitive information and ensuring procedural fairness, given the evolving and case-specific nature of Confidentiality Clubs.
