The action filed against the state over the seizure of 15 computers from the Enmore/ Hope Neighbourhood Democratic Council (NDC) earlier this year was thrown out by a judge last Monday after the claimants failed to adhere to timelines set by the court for filing statements.
High Court Judge Priya Sewnarine-Beharry dismissed the action, noting that the applicant had failed to comply with case management conference orders she would have set to be followed.
On September 21, the court set out its timetable, which specified the time by which certain documents were to be submitted to the court.
At an October 30 hearing, the court noted that there were no reasons/circumstances set out in the affidavit why it would have been impractical for it to enforce the timelines earlier agreed to by the parties.
