SEVERAL ATTORNEYS WAITED in vain at the Supreme Court this morning but all hearings set for this week were postponed.
It caused some to call for better communication, as they gradually learned via email and word-of-mouth that a number of meetings and clerical training were slated for this week.
“I was told the Bar association had sent out a message that there would be no court this week but I don’t know if it was in the papers, which it should have been. That is not the way a modern state runs, said veteran lawyer Robert “Bobby” Clarke, who arrived just after 9:30 as a representative in the case of Olverta Watson and Duty Free Caribbean Ltd.
Among cases scheduled was the matter of Reverend William St Clair, popular known as “the barefoot preacher” versus the Methodist Church.
Sittings are set to resume next week. (CC)
