He contends that the DLP defense lawyers have acted prematurely in themselves requesting disclosure from the complainants&#8217; attorneys.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cSo for those who aren&#8217;t familiar with criminal practice and the procedure here, it is:\u00a0 person appears before the court either by warrant\/arrest or summons, charges read to them and for a summary matter, they are required to plead,&#8221; Joseph explained.\u00a0 &#8220;If they plead guilty, no disclosure is required.\u00a0 If they plead not guilty, then the court sets a date for the trial and also an order for disclosure for the prosecution to affect disclosure.\u00a0 This matter has not had its first reading by the court and you are writing to the prosecution demanding disclosure?\u00a0 What if at the first hearing the prosecution asks the court to dismiss the matter?\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Joseph continued, \u201cRemember when one argument was that the matter was not before the court and so they could not have sought the DPP&#8217;s powers to dismiss?\u00a0 Yet nothing changed and they have asked the DPP to intervene.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He called on John Baptiste and St. Valle to only \u201crespond to the DPP but not others\u201d.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThey do not have the authority to request disclosure from you.\u00a0 That comes from an order of the court after the first hearing when it gives direction,&#8221; Joseph insisted.\u00a0 &#8220;So on 13th May, the trial can never begin to take evidence.\u00a0 That is the day when the defendants go into the dock where the charges are read to them and they get to plead.\u00a0 If I were those guys I would reply to the defense and ask them are they planning to plead guilty.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Joseph held the position of Acting DPP for a short time while working in Dominica and has also worked in the Turks and Caicos Islands .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Acting Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), Sherma Dalrymple,\u00a0says that the office of the Director of Public Prosecutions has \u201calways acted independently and in the interest of justice.\u201d She made her comments in light of concerns raised about a letter to&#8230;","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":266701,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_cbd_carousel_blocks":"[]","footnotes":""},"categories":[19,235,275,9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-266694","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-crime-court-law","category-homepage-carousel","category-housing","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
