Foreign Minister’s In Court Again
Fri, March 24, 2017
Viewers may not be aware but Foreign Affairs Minister Wilfred Elrington and his law firm, Pitts And Elrington, have been fighting a case in court since 2010. The dispute that he has with his former business partners is now ending up all the way at the Caribbean Court of Justice.
