CCJ Amid Leaks and Loyalty | Jamaica News
Description
Veteran attorney Bert Samuels is doubling down on his push for Jamaica to adopt the Caribbean Court of Justice, despite mounting controversy over leaked emails that hint at internal power struggles and allegations of authoritarian leadership. Samuels argues the leak itself reflects poor judgment, not the court’s legitimacy, and highlights how many Jamaican clients can’t afford or access England’s Privy Council. He draws on past support from figures like AJ Nicholson and Sir Dennis Byron, who championed the CCJ as a regional guardian of justice and unity. While Caribbean judicial leaders acknowledge the reports, they reaffirm confidence in the CCJ’s independence and public trust.
