High Court Judge Franklyn Holder has set September 9th, to rule on whether Magistrate Leron Daly can proceed to conduct a Preliminary Inquiry (PI) into the misconduct charges laid against Deputy Chief Election Officer (DCEO) Roxanne Myers.
Magistrate Daly had previously ordered that a PI be conducted to determine whether there is enough evidence for Myers to stand trial at the High Court before a judge and jury which would decide her fate.
Pressing for the matters to be tried summarily, however, the prosecution has since filed an application challenging the magistrate’s decision against summarily handling the charges and wanting them to be determined indictably instead.
