The legal fraternity continues to express deep concern at the lengthy delays in delivering judgments in the High Courts of Barbados.Immediate past president of the Barbados Bar Association Rosalind Smith-Millar has lamented that “it remains a problem” even though, under her leadership, the association wrote to Chief Justice Sir Patterson Cheltenham and Prime Minister Mia Mottley on the issue.When Barbados TODAY reached out to Sir Patterson on Friday, he declined to comment.Today, there was bewilderment and frustration among lawyers involved in the appeal against the October 8, 2021 oral order of Madame Justice Jacqueline Cornelius.Justice Cornelius, who had dismissed all submissions which formed the core of four lawsuits brought by former senator Caswell Franklyn, shopkeeper Adrian Kellman and minimart owner Benson Straker, challenging the constitutionality of the COVID-19 protocols, promised to make her written decision available to all parties within 30 days of her October 8, 2021 order.But more than a year later, attorney for the claimants Neil Marshall and Senior Counsel Leslie Haynes who is representing the State, indicated on Friday they had stopped counting after several other promised timelines had passed with no written judgment.
