Leader of the People’s National Congress Reform, Robert Corbin, has said that “the Judiciary itself is very deficient in dealing with matters of the State.”According to Corbin, it was one of the prime reasons why he opposed the appointment of the Chancellor.He said that he did not believe that the Chancellor would weigh heavily in favour of the citizens when it comes to issues dealing with the State“The judiciary has not been very helpful to the opposition in raising issues where the government has breached the law.”The Opposition leader also pointed to the fact that in seeking redress against apparent transgressions by the President, the Constitution gets in the way.The constitution itself states that the President cannot be brought before the court on anything that he does while in office, he said.Corbin did point out that there are provisions in the constitution to impeach or to remove the president from office,nfl jerseys china, but because of the nature of the constitution, the support of members of the People’s Progressive Party would have to be sought for such a notion. “There is some bit of insulation in terms of how far you can go legislatively in sanctioning what the President can do.”The Constitution was promulgated in 1980 and has been in force for each President ever since. While in Opposition, the PPP challenged the excessive powers and the immunity clause that appeared to protect the president.President Cheddi Jagan had promised to effect the change. He never did. Neither did any of the Presidents since the PPP came to power. However,NFL Cheap Jerseys China, this is the most strenuous criticism against the powers vested in the President and his immunity.Corbin did point out that in the case of Guyana, “we have actually taken decisions made by the President to court so we have found a way to get around that (Absolute Immunity from prosecution). For example we have challenged the constitutionality of the Integrity Commission.”He said that one of the defences raised was that persons were appointed by the President and therefore,Wholesale Jerseys From China, it could not be challenged. “We found a way around it; it is still a matter for the court.We are saying that we are not challenging the decision of the President; we are challenging those persons who have been appointed.“They are not constitutionally in office and therefore, they cannot perform functions since they have been flaws in the constitutional procedure prescribed for them to be appointed so we have gone to court in some cases.”He added,China Jerseys Cheap, however,NFL Jerseys China, that his party,cheap jerseys authentic, regardless of approaches to the courts, has no confidence that the judiciary will act swiftly in these mattersCorbin said that the Integrity Commission issue was filed since 2005 and the matter is still to be bought to a trial, “even though all the pleadings and the request were filed since December 2005.”He said, too, that the government, when it recognized that the case perhaps might come to trial, sought to reconstitute the commission.The Opposition leader did point out that there were many problems within the judiciary that can be attributed to its slothfulness.One such problem, according to Corbin, was the shortage of staff to deal with the large volume of matters filed.He said that the problem also has to do with the slothfulness in which the very judges operate.Only recently the National Assembly had to pass legislation to have Judges write a decision within six months after the completion of a trial.Corbin also said that another damper was in fact with the integrity of the judiciary. “It has to do with the confidence litigants feel about the administration of justice.”
