The Assembly of Southern Lawyers (ASL) is looking forward to the reopening and the full functioning of courts in South Trinidad under new Chief Justice Ronnie Boodoosingh.

In a news release following Boodoosingh’s appointment at President’s House yesterday, the ASL said it trusts that under his guidance, the Judiciary will continue to uphold the rule of law, improve efficiency, reduce backlogs, enhance public confidence, and further the cause of justice for all.

Boodoosingh replaced former chief justice Ivor Archie who was appointed in 2008, and retired yesterday.
