    (1) Derived from a Latin expression meaning 'to speak the law', this concept originally signified the authority to pronounce judgment. Over time, it has come to refer to one of the first and most contested question before any court addresses the merits of a case.

    What term is being referred to?

    (2) In a landmark May 2026 case at a London County court, a freelance HR consultant successfully recovered £7,000 in unpaid fees against a fully lawyered opponent. While a human barrister stepped in to deliver the final oral arguments, the entirety of the pre-trial litigation was handled completely by AI, costing the client a mere £400.

    Sharing its name with a famous lasagna-loving feline, identify this tech platform, which became the UK's first fully regulated AI-driven law firm to win a trial.

    (3) At the launch event for his two new books (pictured here), this senior advocate drew laughter by joking that he specifically omitted stories about the Indian judiciary because he "still intends to practice in India for many more years."

    That intention was solidified shortly after, when the Union government officially extended his tenure in an important position for another three years.

    Identify him.

    (4) A long-standing tradition of the US Senate was to use hourglass-shaped instruments made of ivory. However, in 1954, Richard Nixon broke one during a heated debate on nuclear energy. Unable to procure a similar piece, an appeal was made to the Indian Embassy for the required materials.

    What kind of object was later presented by Vice President S. Radhakrishnan to the US Senate?

    U.S. Senate: Gavel, Senate

    (5) A recent UN Commission of Inquiry concluded that Israeli forces deliberately targeted children in Gaza, amounting to crimes against humanity. This high-profile UN investigation was notably chaired by a prominent Indian jurist and former Chief Justice of the Orissa High Court- chosen for his record of upholding constitutional rights and civil liberties.

    Identify him.
