The Supreme Court Advocates-On-Record Welfare Trust is unrelated to the Supreme Court Advocates-On-Record Association: Resolution passed by SCAORA The Supreme Court Advocates On Record Association's Executive Committee has asked the SC Advocates on Record Welfare Trust not to use SCAOR in its name or use SCAORA's address in its operations and activities. The Association, by a 9:3 majority vote on July 18th, has also requested that the Trust make necessary changes to all of the Trust's records. Taking note of the trust Deed of the "Supreme Court Advocates-on-Record Welfare Trust" dated February 07, 2013, the Association has said that the said Trust's use of SCAORA's name and address has given the false impression that the Trust is being operated or managed by SCAORA. "The presence of the President, Vice-President, and Secretary of SCAORA, who are ex officio trustees in the said Trust during their term as per the said Trust Deed, does not imply that the said Trust is administered or managed by the EC of SCAORA in office," SCAORA stated.

The Association claims that the Trust has received considerable expenditures and donations as a result of the Trust's use of the terms 'Supreme Court Advocates-on-Record' in its name, as well as SCAORA's location. Furthermore, the SCAORA Executive Committee in office has no access to or control over the Trust property it receives. According to the Association, payments that should have been credited to SCAORA for the benefit of its members were instead received by the Welfare Trust, leaving SCAORA cash-strapped. According to SCAORA, the Memorandum of Association of SCAORA or any SCOARA Rules do not permit or justify an EC of SCAORA lending the name of 'Supreme Court Advocates-on-Record' to any entity, and that too, to receive contributions by virtue of using the words 'Supreme Court Advocates-on-Record' in its name and the address with the elected Executive Committee of SCAORA in office havi SCAORA has also stated that its records do not contain any GBM or Resolution authorising the then EC to establish the said Trust with SCAORA as Settlor on the terms set forth in the Trust Deed, and that even if there had been such a Resolution, it would have been outside of SCAORA's MOA, requiring appropriate amendments.
