Repeated delays in repaying an over $100,000 debt to a former client have landed a lawyer a two-week stint in prison.
Attorney Kavita Crystal Persad was committed to the Women's Prison in Arouca for 14 days as she was held in contempt of court by High Court Judge Frank Seepersad, yesterday.
The contempt proceedings against Persad, of Old Factory Road, Piarco, stemmed from a lawsuit filed by her former client Kyle Hope-Singh, three years ago.
