A woman from Tacarigua has won a property dispute with her brother over his continued residence on a property that their mother left her.

Late last month, High Court Judge Westmin James upheld a lawsuit brought by Dianne Parris-Hernandez against her brother Wayne Parris.

The lawsuit centred around a wooden house which Parris constructed on the property at Dinsley Village, Tacarigua, with his mother’s permission while she was still alive.
