Yesterday’s Sunday Edition of the Guyana Chronicle’s, lead headline loudly screams, `Dr. Francis Alexis, QC says PPP/C appeal to the CCJ has no real prospect of success’.
The stated mission of the Regional Judicial and Legal Services Commission is to appoint judges of the Caribbean Court of Justice.
Dr. Alexis appeared in the Guyana Court of Appeal for the Applicant, in the case of Eslyn David v Chief Election Officer and others.
These conventions supplement the law to protect institutions of the law, the legal system itself, the rule of law and cannons of fundamental justice.
I take solace from the fact that the CCJ had no difficulty in rejecting Dr. Alexis’s argument in the Guyana Court of Appeal, in the No-Confidence Motion cases, where he submitted that the term “majority” means “absolute majority” in Article 106 of the Constitution of Guyana.
