Deputy Attorney-General and Minister for Justice, Justice Srem-Sai, has rejected the Ghana Bar Association’s position on proceedings during the legal vacation, insisting that lawyers have no legal basis to decide whether cases should be heard before Vacation Courts.
According to the Deputy Attorney-General, the Chief Justice has issued warrants authorising about 10 or more judges across the country to sit during the legal vacation and deal with pending cases.
Justice Srem-Sai was responding to concerns raised by the GBA over directives requiring lawyers to appear before judges sitting during the current legal vacation.
