High Court dismisses $93,000 claim against Petrotrin- File photoThe High Court has dismissed a $93,037.73 claim brought by a marine construction and equipment company against the Petroleum Company of Trinidad and Tobago Limited (Petrotrin), ruling that the matter was filed outside the statutory period.
Justice Marissa Robertson dismissed DAYNCO’s claim on October 1, and ordered the company to pay Petrotrin’s costs.
Since DAYNCO filed proceedings after December 2019, the claim was deemed time-barred under Section 3(1) of the Limitation of Certain Actions Act.
The claimant, not having filed these proceedings before December 4, 2019, has filed these proceedings outside of the statutory period.
Attorneys Anthony Cherry represented DAYNCO, while Petrotrin was represented by Roger-Mark Kawalsingh and Ashley Roopchansingh.
