Two new Puisne Judges have officially taken up office in Trinidad and Tobago.
Her Excellency President Christine Carla Kangaloo administered the Oath of Office to Mr Justice Vigel Paul and Madame Justice Danielle Thompson this morning at a ceremony held at President’s House.
The swearing-in took place at ten-thirty and was attended by the Honourable Chief Justice, Justice Ronnie Boodoosingh, along with other members of the judiciary.
