Summary: | The history of the mandatory wearing of uniforms by lawyers began in 1864, when it was established, by decree, the way magistrates’ and lawyers’ robes should look. Thus, the Decree for the uniform of magistrates and lawyers of December 29, 1864 established that lawyers will also wear uniform in the future when they are in session. The suit (uniform) of the lawyers consisted of a black merino cloak with a straight collar, closed in front, with a white frill, wide sleeves, lined with black velvet and on the head with a square black toque without a cord and black miller belts. Suspended in 1868, the Decree was put into effect again in 1869, giving the lawyers’ uniform an optional character. Between 1903-1904, lawyers from the whole country divided into two camps, one supporting the wearing of the robe, the other fighting it furiously. It was necessary, after long and stormy debates, to vote a law that would regulate and definitively impose the wearing of the robes of all lawyers, when they plead before the courts. The text of the law that stipulated the mandatory wearing of the robe by lawyers was applied for four years, from February 1, 1905, until March 4, 1909, when it came back to the obligation to wear the robe, which, by law, was decreed optional. In the interwar period, the question of lawyers wearing robes when pleading in court was no longer raised. The lawyers’ uniform would be reiterated again after 1995, with a new regulation of practicing the profession of lawyer, by Law no. 51/1995. |
