–AG says after exchange with CJ in court
Attorney General Anil Nandlall SC yesterday said that the continued non-compliance by the judiciary with the law requiring decisions within a certain period cannot be justified.
He issued a statement in response to a report yesterday on the online news agency Demerara Waves about an exchange in court between him and Chief Justice (ag) Roxane George SC on the time limits.
Nandlall said that the “engagement was firm but respectful. Both sides expressed their different and disparate positions”.
Recounting the exchange that occurred on Thursday during a Zoom court hearing, he said that at the start of the proceedings, the Chief Justice spoke of her hectic day in the Court.
