…defence says enough time wastedLawyers for former President Bharrat Jagdeo,[url=http://www.nfljerseyscheaponline.us@#$%&/]Cheap Jerseys Online[/url], the plaintiff in the Frederick Kissoon libel case, have beenFormer President Bharrat Jagdeogranted a third adjournment by High Court Judge Brassington Reynolds to appeal a ruling he made in favour of the defence. The lawyers are applying to the Full Court to appeal the sitting Judge?s ruling out-of-time.Despite strong objections from Kissoon?s lawyer, Nigel Hughes, who expressed concern that the libel case seems to be dragging on, the court gave the plaintiff until February 13 to report positively on its application to the Full Court, or face the continuation of the libel case.The Kissoon libel case,[url=http://www.cheapjerseysshare.us@#$%&/]NFL Jerseys Supply[/url], ongoing for almost six years now,[url=http://www.salecheapjerseys.us@#$%&/]NFL Cheap Jerseys[/url], is currently on pause since the plaintiff is still to appeal the High Court ruling which gave the defence permission to amend their case. More than nine months after the court gave the plaintiff time to appeal the ruling; the lawyers are still to do so.Last year March,[url=http://www.nfljerseyschinaauthentic.us/]Wholesale Jerseys From China[/url], the plaintiff objected to evidence being provided by defence witnesses. Senior Counsel Bernard De Santos and his junior, Sase Gunraj, said that the evidence provided by the defence was being made to justify statements Kissoon made in his newspaper column.De Santos said that there was no evidence to justify the said information.After arguments by both sides, Hughes opted to amend the defence?s case to include justification of the evidence, and his application was granted.De Santos was against this ruling and vowed to appeal the matter. Time was granted for this appeal to be made and for an amended reply to be made to the amended defence. When the court was told that the legal documents were not filed by the plaintiff, the plaintiff asked the court to apply to the Full Court to appeal the matter out-of-time and also to provide the amended response.Kaieteur News columnist Frederick KissoonAgain the plaintiff asked for more time as there was no word from the Full Court as to when the case would be addressed.Yesterday,[url=http://www.salecheapjerseys.us@#$%&/]NFL Jerseys Cheap[/url], Attorney Sase Gunraj said that his senior was involved in another court case and could not be present before Justice Reynolds. He said, however, that on this occasion, an application was filed to the Full Court. However, the CJ has transferred the matter to other Judges, Gunraj said.He is however, unsure when the matter would be addressed at that level and asked the court for ?a short adjournment? to ascertain when the Full Court will hear the application.Attorney Hughes strongly objected to Gunraj?s request and asked that a date be given to continue the long-running libel case.He argued that while the plaintiff claims to have made an application to the Full Court on December 19 last, the defence is yet to receive any documentation. He said that the court was also not provided with the names of the Judges to whom the CJ assigned the application. Hughes went on to say that there was no impediment preventing them from carrying out the court?s orders.He said the plaintiff does not seem enthusiastic about addressing the appeal expeditiously and noted that despite the prominence of the plaintiff and the length of time the case is ongoing,[url=http://www.wholesalenfljerseyssale.us@#$%&/]Wholesale Jerseys[/url], it seems that the assigned judges are also not enthused about speedily addressing the matter and that would lead to the case being delayed further, he indicated.Gunraj stated that he could make extra efforts to monitor the application to provide the court with an update from the Full Court. He said he could also write the CJ asking his indulgence in the matter. Gunraj said that the application to the Full Court was delivered to Hughes? office but he provided an extra copy in court to ensure that the defence was in receipt of the document. He also provided one of the Judges? named to hear their application but he was not sure.Justice Reynolds decided however, that on the next occasion the plaintiff has to report whether the Full Court heard the application or a date would be given for defence witnesses to continue their testimony.The amendment of the defence?s case sent the libel case in a different direction when De Santos (SC) claimed that the amendment would be prejudicial to the plaintiff who has already closed his case. De Santos argued that the defence should have known from the inception that they had to justify statements made to justify accusations against the former President.Bharrat Jagdeo is seeking more than $10M in compensation from Kissoon,[url=http://www.cheapnfljerseysmr.us@#$%&/]Authentic NFL Jerseys Wholesale[/url], Kaieteur News publisher Glenn Lall and Editor-in-Chief Adam Harris.
