The State has been granted permission to challenge at the Privy Council a Court of Appeal ruling which awarded $300,000 in damages, plus additional costs, to Tobago resident Colin Simmons.
In a draft order delivered Tuesday, Appeal Court Judges Peter Rajkumar, Maria Wilson, and Geoffrey Henderson allowed the State to appeal aspects of the ruling, which stemmed from Simmons’ unlawful imprisonment claim.
