in barrister's gowns, with in the background the first
building of the Court of Justice, which was constructed in
1882 AD, after merging and moving several minor courts under
the Ministry of Justice to the Court of Justice. Depicting
the king during whose reign the Bar was established together
with the current monarch, hints to the overall period, from
the beginning to the present time.
The black bar gown is the
present official court dress in Thailand and is known in
Thai as
seua kruy
neti
bandit
(เสื้อครุยเนติบัณฑิต).
In red, in the left top
corner, is the circular logo of the Bar, which depicts a
thevada
figure
seated in the
royal relaxation-position,
holding a sword upright in the one hand and a balanced set
of scales in the other hand. The figure is surrounded by
kanok
motifs while at
the bottom is a banner that reads Neti
Bandit
Thayasapha Nai
Phra
Boromma
Rachupatham (เนติบัณฑิตยสภา
ในพระบรมราชูปถัมภ์),
i.e. ‘The
Thai Bar, Under Royal Patronage’. |
