(Demerara Waves) The opposition A Partnership for National Unity+Alliance For Change (APNU+AFC) wants the High Court to hear the two election petitions, although Mr. David Granger signed the wrong date on a court document to facilitate the fixing a date to hear arguments.
Chief Justice Roxane George-Wiltshire says she will hand down her decision on January 18, 2021 on whether to dismiss the petitions as is being requested by Attorney General Anil Nandlall and Senior Counsel, Douglas Mendes, for the Representative of the People’s Progressive Party Civic’s (PPPC) List of candidates.
The judge already notes that APNU+AFC lawyers have submitted arguments only because of objections raised by the Attorney General, Anil Nandlall and Senior Counsel Douglas Mendes who is representing the People’s Progressive Party Civic’s Representative of the List, Bharrat Jagdeo.
