Attorneys-at-law Clive Munroe Jr and Nicole Gordon, speaking Sunday on Radio Jamaica's That's a Rap
Attorney at Law Clive Munroe Junior says Jamaica establishing its own final appellate court would not be a practical alternative to either the UK based Privy Council or the Caribbean Court of Justice - CCJ.
He was responding to a question on Radio Jamaica's That's a Rap, whether it would be feasible for Jamaica to establish its final court locally in light of the impasse on the issue between the government and the opposition.
Mr Munroe says, while Jamaica has judges of the right professional calibre for such a court, there are benefits to be derived from the wider pool of experience that the regional court provides:
Nicole Gordon, also an attorney, similarly asserted that it would be best to take advantage of the already established CCJ as Jamaica's final appellate court.
Ms. Gordon highlighted the work already being done by the CCJ and the financial support that regional countries, including Jamaica, provide for its operations.
According to her, the CCJ has shown itself to have all the necessary requirements and capabilities to be Jamaica's final court.
