 Raj contracted with his friend Kajal into a contract that he would not represent Jatin in any law suit for the next one year. After two months, Raj represents Jatin in a civil suit. Kajal sues Raj for the breach of the contract. What would be the legal outcome of the suit against Raj?

Option: 1

The suit would grant relief to kajal as Raj has violated the terms of the contract.


Option: 2

The suit would award compensation to kajal and would direct Raj to pay the amount


Option: 3

The suit would fail as the contract being made to restraint the legal proceedings is void


Option: 4

The suit would fail as Raj is a barrister and he has the fundamental right to practise trade or profession without any legal restrictions.

The contract between Raj and kajal was made which tried to restraint the legal proceedings. As any contract which is made to restraint the legal proceedings is void under the law. Thus, the contract between Raj and kajal is also void and the action of kajal suing Raj for the violation of the void contract would fail. hence option C is correct.
