The Ghana Bar Association (GBA) has backed the directive by the Chief Justice, CJ, for trial judges to call cases of senior lawyers before that of junior lawyers. Saviour Kudze, the Public Relations Officer, PRO, in an interview with JoyNews, said the CJ's directive is in the right direction; indicating that, it will offer young or junior lawyers the opportunity to learn from their seniors. Chief Justice, Kwasi Anin-Yeboah, directed trial judges to adhere strictly to the age-long tradition of calling cases of senior lawyers first. “It has recently been drawn to my attention, that some Trial Court Judges are not observing this practice in court."
