ACTING Town Clerk Carol Sooba’s application to the court for Orders or Rules Nisi of Certiorari relative to Mayor Hamilton Green’s appointment of Royston King as Town Clerk of the Georgetown Municipality, will engage the Chief Justice on Thursday.

Miss Sooba who is represented by Attorney-at-Law, Mr. Roysdale Forde, has put forward a nine-page motion for the consideration of the court.
She is hoping to convince the court that the swearing-in of Royston King into the office of Town Clerk of the city of Georgetown by Mayor of Georgetown, Mr. Hamilton Green, is unlawful, ultra vires, irrational, unreasonable, in excess of jurisdiction, null and void and of no legal effect.
When the matter begins on Thursday it is believed that the other side will ask the court for leave to file an affidavit in answer.
