Beleaguered Supreme Court judge Justice Bill Wilson is claiming victory following a judicial review of the Judicial Conduct Commissioner’s report concerning him.
A statement this afternoon released by Bell Gully, Justice Wilson’s former law firm, said he was “very pleased” with the result.
“The judge is very pleased that his judicial review proceedings have achieved their principal objective of quashing both the recommendation of the Judicial Conduct Commissioner that a panel be convened and the decision of the acting Attorney General to accept that recommendation.”
Justice Wilson believed that both the commissioner’s recommendation and the decision to accept it were seriously flawed in law.
“The High Court has now confirmed this.”
