Is Tracy in Contempt of Court?

Circling back to the contempt of court application filed by Shyne Barrow and his U.D.P. executives, Pitts couldn’t go into much detail. However, she did mention to reporters this afternoon that the claimants might have jumped the gun by filing the claim too early.

“I cannot speak on the application for contempt because it was, as I understand it, just served this morning.  But what I appreciate is that Knox K.C. made some observations about perhaps what, my words, may very well be prematurity in those applications.  But, like I said, the thing is, when a matter is sub judicae, you must be guided and cautious that it is before the court and not attempt to speak on anything other than what orders were made, just remain sober and report factually the things that transpired.”

“Is Tracy Panton any closer to regaining control of the headquarters or claiming the full undisputed leadership of the UDP today than she was three weeks ago?”’

“What I can tell you is that from the decision of the judge, the judge appreciated that this is a matter that requires urgency and what counsel for honorable Panton did is make an application to invite the court to ensure timelines that would make real the urgency of the situation.”
