@crisistalker If your proposed expert is in the medical field, looking up journals, and then the authors of said journals, is useful

Law twitter, where do you find expert witnesses? A directory (which one)? Word of mouth? Lexis/Westlaw listings?

@BartlettMorgan @Google My play store is in Barbados

@BarAssoc246 @Google Based on checks with others experiencing it, the problem seems to be limited to circumstances where the Play Store account is directly linked to Barbados. Not sure why this is the case.

So @Google has this weird thing where if you live in Barbados it refuses to take your money to pay for storage via Google One. Mind you, if you are in most other Caribbean countries you are fine. Very strange.

@LittleChefLos Feeling that you have to accomplish everything in one day and ending up not being able to

@LittleChefLos Not being able to say no when clients become unreasonable

@BartlettMorgan Can I tell you how big this case is? I have this exact issue for a client

The Caye International Bank v Rosemore decision from the CCJ is a big deal. This case is going to force a rethink by many Caribbean banks around their verification and security processes when processing requests to transfer funds.

@LicyLaw Congratulations

I am truly grateful to my director for the opportunity to have co-authored a chapter with her on "Development, Aid and Preferential Systems" in the 2nd edition of OUP's "The Oxford Handbook of International Trade Law (2e)". global.oup.com/academic/produ…

Happy Independence Barbados!

Major shout out to our partners this year This year's conference would not have been possible without your help!

"In Canada, judges couldn't wait to go back to in person hearings." Courts need to find a to administer justice without the layers of administration. Bruce Preston #keepup

"Courts in Barbados saw improved efficiency when hearings were scheduled for a specific time on Zoom." Bruce Preston discusses Covid & the Courts

Bruce Preston reports on Covid and the Courts and the clearance rate of the Barbados Judiciary which pre pandemic was 27% and 35% during the pandemic. And acknowledges Sir Dennis' early comment that unless the clearance rate was 100% you were creating a back log. #keepup

Sir Dennis states when reviewing the Barbadian Supreme Court rules and identifying the milestones of the rules with respect to a matter a case in Barbados can be completed in 103 days Procedural Justice IS Justice

Sir Dennis suggests a good way to judge efficiency: "What is the clearance rate of your judiciary?" #keepup

quoting @CaribbeanCourt President Justice Saunders Sir Dennis states "culture beats learning all the time" If you don't change the culture you will never improve the technology.

"You can't automate a manual system. You're just wasting money" Sir Dennis makes the point in respect of case management software and justice delivery. Oftentimes the capacity of the software is only utilised at less than 40%.
