The hearing of Precision Woodworking’s over five-year-old lawsuit against Republic Bank (Guyana) Limited for alleged breach of contract is now set to begin on March 22nd at 1 pm.
Though Justice Navindra Singh was ready to proceed on February 7th, lawyers for the defendants—the bank and Kashir Khan in his capacity as receiver for Precision—had asked the court to first await rulings in interlocutory appeals that they have filed before the Full Court.
Senior Counsel Robin Stoby, on behalf of the defendants, had asked that all proceedings be halted, pending Full Court rulings, which were scheduled to be delivered on February 19th.
