The Bar Association of Belize is considering calling for the resignation of Guyana-born Chief Justice (CJ) Kenneth Benjamin, given the extensive backlog of cases which presently exists.
This is according to media reports which state that a decision was made to delay its call in keeping with a promise made by Justice Benjamin to work on remedying the situation during his vacation time.
A publication on the issue last month in the Amandala newspaper stated that the Bar has a duty to do all within its statutory powers to ensure that outstanding judgements are delivered.
