High Court Judge Justice Brian Cottle has granted leave for the application of judicial review to question the appointment of the Dave Bruney on the Integrity Commission (IPO).
Last week an application challenging Burneys appointment was filed in court on behalf of Ambrose George and other members of Cabinet.
Senior Council Anthony Astaphan said the news is encouraging.
“I am very happy that he granted us leave to apply for judicial review to question Bruneys appointment. He agreed with us on the application that there were serious issues about Bruney being disqualified on the grounds that he held office in the United Workers Party up until April 2011,” he said.
Astaphan also said the judge has refused to grant an injunction to stop Bruney from sitting on the commission.
“That was well within the Judge’s discretion but we will look at it and see how we should approach it,” he added.
Counsel for the Opposition Mr. Gildon Richards says the Judge has made the right decision.
He described the allegations as frivolous and flimsy.
SERIOUS SIDE…..HOW IS IT WHEN IS LABOUR PARTY THEY COURT SYSTEM PERFORMS LIKE A WELL OILED MACHINE…BUT WHEN IS THE OPPOSITION OR ANYONE NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE COVERNMENT IT PERFORMS LIKE A RUSTY OLD BROKEN MACHINE?……IS IT ME OR IS IT INTERESTING???
FUNNY SIDE…….D WAS WONDERING WHAT ROLL TONY CAN PLAY IN A MOVIE WITHOUT MAKE UP…….AND I GOT IT…..”HOLY PENGUIN BATMAN”
He would look better with locks and babb
He looks like “Sogo FLY”, STATE OF EMERGENCY YOU PUT ME IN JAIL.
Tony is so scary looking…..arghhhhh!!!!
perfect photo
Same court same Judge, a different decision in a different case. Mr. George is disappointed – understandadly so. His very personal private maters will now be laid before the UWP’s table. Wait to hear about what Ambrose and Skerrits owns soon. When Dave was appointed to the IPO he was very convinced that Skerrit was the biggest and most corrupt leader ever to serve in Dominica”. he was convinced that Skerriot owns the villas. He was convinced that there is rampant corruption in government led by Skerrit. What has happened since to allow Dave to deal in an objective manner to matters involving Skerrit? Remember the attack on the IPO for not responding positively to the complaints of the UWP as they were brought by the experienced, veteran journalist. The one who has no formal training in jouirnalism? How can Dave’s perceptionof Skerit’s guilt chnage overnight by the taking of an oath? We are really asking for plenty.
In this matter, I am did not hear Tony or Alick take the judge to task for not siding with them. Remember the svagery that was unleashed on the same judge by Mr. All perfect, Lennox when the same Judge ask Linton to pay $50,000.00 for his tongue? What a among true professionals.
While all of you commenting on Tony’s looks, how many of you can walk in his shoes? Why can’t you all criticize constructively instead of attempting to ridicule the man. Remember Tony is doing his job as an attorny, whether we like it or not. Does anyone know his track record in terms of the number of cases he has won not just Dominica but regionally? Come on people, if you dont have anything positive to say, this is not the avenue for such negatives. We can do much better than that.
Remember the saying….”let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me”
Lets look at ourselves in the mirror and remove the beam from our eyes, before we can see that of others.
God Bless
We can’t help but comment on his looks. Man are you seeing that picture looking back at you? Constructive criticism is out the window today we, sorry pah.
boy tony not pretty. papa met. somebody please remind me of the cartoon character he looks like. The name is not coming to mind right now.
Pinky and the Brain? lol
Tony, why don’t you want Dave Bruney appointed?
Does he know something about you that you don’t
want others to know. If so, you are not a man but
a whinger like you were at SMA – you haven’t
change.
Almighty and eternal father please hear our paryers and cast this evil spell to the bottomless pit of fire. He looks like the demon I once confronted at my door-step. Now, he is in charge of our judicial sytem tearing the nation in pieces with the help of the devil’s servants who serve at the top, Amen.
Tony, please stay off Dominicans back. Who have ears let them hear.
This Judge is a labour party judge.
That is the look of another Mitsubishi pick-up truck sold to a poor farmer for an extra $45 thousand dollars over it’s market value. The blood of the poor is begining to show in your looks.
“O what a tangled web you weave, when first you practice to deceive .”
We continue to skirt around the issue….commenting on the man looks….he ain’t asking anyone for wife…..geezzz man.
Let’s concentrate on the garbage he is belching out every day and the destruction he is causing in the country….enough about his looks….I sure if someone had to describe each and everyone of you…..they would come up with something not so pleasing.
Let’s rise above that my friends and discuss the hard core issue, this is the only way we are going to get things done in the country.
Is Tony Astaphans, the justice system and the cabinet with one set of utensils fair? That is the question.
How do we stop this madness from happening in our country?

Many Dominicans have over the years had an uncanny docile approach to anything that does not directly affect them/their familiy. Is anyone running a tally of the amount it cost government in lawyer/court fees for these nonsensical undertaken? It appears that lawyers like Tony continue to steer the country from agendas like creating employment which is far more serious, and had it not been for the few media houses this unemployment issue would be in the dark hole of space. I cannot understand how people stand for lack of representation especially when the needs of the elite in our society are being addressed.
Run peeps run Tony coming with looks and lies
Allah allah DNO you doh have a different picture of Tony. Even if the man is deceitful and dishonest at least get a better picture nuh .

Nice pic, an appropriate reflection of the person inside.. Thanks DNO! no wonder hum,huum, huum! Good thing walls don’t speak.
IS THIS THE PICTURE OF THE GENTLEMAN THAT ACTED IN BATMAN AND THE PENGUINS.
Everytime I see this man I remember the Batman movie. Even my niece says that this man looks like penguin.
I agree with you. My son was behaving and I showed it to him. DNO, this picture is distracting
Wow how quick this issue went to the judge. I’d be a darn fool our totally bias to believe that guys like Tony and the politicians in power have no control over the legal system
Why is it taking the judge three weeks to decide whether or not Tony should present his clients passports in a case?
I am not a legal expert and I went to school in August only but I can tell when a scale is not balanced and I can also detect that the person seating in the driver seat is the one driving the bus.
remember the judge appointed by the government
ADMINS— I CAN’T HELP BUT LAUGH AT THIS PICTURE. IT LOOKS LIKE PENGUINE IN THE BATMAN MOVIE. HHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAA
oops
true
