Sorry, it is not possible to become a Magistrate with the distance LLB course. To become a Magistrate the aspirant should have a Law Degree from a recognized university and must have enrolled as an advocate with membership with the State Bar Council. The aspirant should be practiced as an advocate for about 10 years. But if you studied the course in the distance or correspondence mode, you cannot practice in the courts of law. So it is not possible to become a magistrate with the distance LLB course.
