The case, currently being heard by Justice Tom in the High Court, centers on the eligibility of Dr. Friday and Mr. Bramble to hold office. “The issue… is whether these men were eligible to be elected to the parliament of St. Vincent and the Grenadines,” Thomas stated. As the trial reached the end of its second day, Thomas reported that the proceedings had become “testy” during arguments over expert evidence. He further contended that the petitioners’ submission did not constitute a proper expert report but was merely a statement of Canadian law. “If we get clarity on the constitution… we can’t put a price to that,” Thomas concluded.
