Jennifer Messado
Disbarred attorney Jennifer Messado and her husband, Geoffrey, on Thursday had their bail extended when they appeared in the Kingston and St Andrew Parish Court.
They are to return to court on November 16.
Mr. Messado, who is 75 years old, is charged with four counts of forgery and two counts of obtaining money by means of false pretence.
His wife is charged with four counts of obtaining money by false pretence and 12 counts of forgery arising from a transaction with businessman Lauriston Stewart in 2018.
When the matter was called up Thursday morning, the Messado's attorney, Peter Champagnie, said he made a request to the Director of Public Prosecutions for a review of the case, outlining in detail why Mr. Messado should not have been charged.
However, Mr. Champagnie said the DPP's office needs additional time to review his request.
