Africa-Press – Liberia. <\/strong><\/span>Eye witnesses reported that the removal was swift and unyielding, with no regard for the adverse weather conditions.<\/p>\n

In an unexpected and dramatic move, Chief Justice Sie-Nyene Yuoh Wednesday June 5, ordered court sheriffs to throw party litigants out of the premises of the Temple of Justice, despite a heavy downpour.<\/p>\n

Chief Justice Yuoh\u2019s decision left many individuals drenched and sparked concerns about the treatment of those seeking justice.<\/p>\n

Eye witnesses reported that the removal was swift and unyielding, with no regard for the adverse weather conditions.<\/p>\n

This incident raises important questions about the balance between court protocols and humane treatment.<\/p>\n

This is not the first time for Chief Justice Yuoh to order Court Sheriffs to throw party litigants out of the courtyard, stating that the courtyard is not a waiting place.<\/p>\n

\u201cPut them outside. Whether it\u2019s raining or not, push them outside. This is not a waiting area,\u201d she stressed.<\/p>\n

She also informed the sheriffs and bailiffs to the chief security of the Judiciary, stating that the officers always delay in implementing her \u2018no standing and waiting orders\u2019.<\/p>\n

Following her order, the court officers began to implement it to the fullest, thereby chasing lawyers and party litigants to leave the corridors leading to the Monrovia City Court, something which sparked out huge outcries by some of those who were waiting for the hearing of their cases.<\/p>\n

Since her ascendancy as head of the Judiciary, she has ordered court officers not to allow anyone sitting in the courtyard when their cases are not ready or have no business to do at the court.<\/p>\n

The Monrovia City Court, which is the court of first instance, has a sitting capacity of just twenty people and there is no waiting area within the court\u2019s corridors where party litigants can sit to wait for their case time.<\/p>\n

Many of the drenched party litigants lamented the \u201cinhumane action\u201d of the Chief Justice, stressing that she is \u201cover using\u201d her power as Chief Justice.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the rain is good for us, why didn\u2019t she stop under it? Is she better than us,\u201d one of the party litigants questioned?<\/p>\n

\u201cShe should remember that we gave her the power because we, as citizens, voted for the president who appointed her,\u201d another party litigant noted.<\/p>\n
