(Jamaica Gleaner) The President of the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) has responded to concerns that the court is susceptible to political interference because of the small space in which it operates. Delivering a public lecture at the University of the West Indies last evening, Sir Dennis Byron, said he was aware of opposition to Jamaica’s adoption of the CCJ as its final court. However, he says concerns about the ability of the court’s judges to remain independent because of issues of familiarity are unfounded.
