The end of mediation between brothers and co-managing partners of Amarchand Mangaldas, Cyril and Shardul Shroff, has been postponed to 1 May, after mediations today failed to resolve remaining outstanding issues.
As reported yesterday, both brothers had aimed to launch their new separate partnership firms tomorrow, 21 April, to coincide with one of the Hindu calendar’s most auspicious days, Akshaya Tritiya, according to sources.
However, it is understood that mediations were not able to conclude today, resulting in a return to the previous timetable with a deadline of April end (which has also been postponed several times) to settle the mediation and establish new firms.
Cyril and Shardul Shroff did not respond to messages seeking comment.

You may also have noticed that whenever a comment is not (yet) published it appears with grey placeholder text, which I also hope will make our moderation process a little more transparent.
However, what I do not like is the layout of the page, where the ads clutter up the page way too much. Im sure it help pays the bills so its gonna stay.
cheers

If anyone's happy to pay for an ad free version of LI, do throw some money our way and I'll make sure it gets done for you... :)
surely there are better cows ?
.... further postponed to 4th May on the auspicious occasion of Buddha Pournima!
I think everyone is quite sick of CAM/SAM. Its going to happen - no one cares now. Anything else thats interesting? Foreign Law Firm updates maybe? An interview with India desk head of a foreign law firm may be more interesting at this juncture. Just a thought!
That said, once it's all done and dusted, it is a story that has (and will have) major repercussions for the entire industry, so interest is also warranted.
Will heed your advice and try and find some time for other interesting things from law firm land though. :)
Kian, updates such as this one and the previous one are really not required.
You don't have to play by your opponents' rules, necessarily. You reported the previous one which had no substance. But, because it gave a date for an event, you were naturally compelled to publish this one, too. Like this, there's no end. You don't have to necessarily do everything that your opponent is doing, specially when it is something so unimportant. It's not just that such reports are boring and reflect badly, it's the other stuff that you probably skip and neglect because your energies are focused on this. Be a little more holistic in your approach to 'legal reporting', rather than focusing on specific firms/ events, excessively.
In any case, all evidence points to this now being the home straight in this stage of the CAM-SAM saga and we'll be able to get back to non-CAM-SAM news too...
tareekh pe tareekh

That won't happen- high hopes!
And who from Okhlaa is coming to Mumbai for SAM?
