posted (May 20, 2014)
Justice of Appeal Samuel Awich will be re-appointed to the Court of Appeals. That is the un-official word from reliable sources who say the Prime Minister has written to the leader of the opposition to consult on Awich's re - appointment to the court.

Awich's contract ended on May 15th - the same day that he delivered the lead majority decision in the Court of Appeal judgment on the second acquisition of BTL.

We understand that the 68 year old will now serve until the age of 75. The Prime Minister did not respond to a request for confirmation of this.
