Bev, cases often get delayed in courts largely due to issues of evidence ,witnesses , and backlog.
Also large parts of trials happen behind the scene without public awareness.It is important for litigants to often contact their attorneys to find out about the status of their case. It is a good customer service in a law office also to regularly inform clients about the status of their case , even if they (clients) did not ask.
However, one has to admit that many attorneys use delaying tactics which are totally unwarranted. In the Gambia prosectors are especially notorious for this.
I believe judges and magistrates could exercise stronger authority over the pace and scope of cases they preside over. But again all this point to the larger question of the independent of the judiciary.
Quite, my point exactly,you have put in in a different way, maybe more clearly than me!!!! |
"Simple is good" & I strongly dislike politics. You cannot defend the indefensible.
