‘Difficult not to read ulterior motives’ into GBA’s letter to Chief Justice – Joyce Bawah Mogtari
In a Facebook post on Wednesday, August 12, Ms Mogtari said she found it difficult not to perceive “ulterior motives” in the GBA’s letter to Chief Justice Paul Baffoe-Bonnie, suggesting that the association’s position could be viewed as an affront to the administrative authority of the Chief Justice.
Her comments follow a letter from the GBA to the Chief Justice on Monday, August 10, in which the association expressed concern over directives requiring lawyers to appear before Vacation Courts despite having indicated their unavailability.
She questioned why the GBA would publicly challenge the Chief Justice’s approach to managing the courts, describing the association’s decision to do so as “disrespectfully disturbing”.
