Message from the President
The Hon. Mrs. Justice Anita Allen
President
Welcome to the Court of Appeal’s website.
Our mission statement “Delivering Justice with Humility” defines our commitment to the public.
In carrying out our mission we promise to follow the injunction of the Greek philosopher, Socrates: “to hear courteously, answer wisely, consider soberly and decide impartially”.
This website provides fair and equal access to information about the Court of Appeal and demonstrates our accountability to the public we serve which is the hallmark of excellence in public service.
The ability to obtain information about the Court’s processes and hearings in a timely fashion should make the experiences of litigants and lawyers with the Court, more productive.
We are committed to making this website more easily accessible, more easily searchable, more accurate and more relevant to all users.
In that regard, we intend to improve the search engine to enable users looking for judgments to search by date and relevant categories.
We have removed from the ‘Judgments’ tab all oral decisions in adjourned matters, which are not dispositive of the appeal and have placed them under the tab ‘Pending Matters’. We hope to make further improvements by including annual reports, a newsletter and digests of important decisions.
We trust your visit to the website will be both satisfying and productive. Thank you for visiting.
Anita Allen
President,
Court of Appeal
