CCJ<\/a> Bids Farewell to Retiring Judge, Mr Justice Burgess with Special Sitting<\/strong><\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

On Tuesday, 18 March 2025, representatives and dignitaries from around the region gathered at the Caribbean Court of Justice<\/a> (CCJ) for a Special Sitting, a ceremonial sitting to mark a special event within a court or judiciary, to commemorate the retirement of CCJ Judge<\/a>, the Honourable Mr Justice Andrew Burgess. Mr Justice Burgess, an expert in corporate and commercial law, was appointed to the Court in 2019, making him the first Barbadian to be appointed to the Bench of the regional court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of Mr Justice Burgess, CCJ<\/a> President, the Honourable Mr Justice Adrian Saunders hailed the Judge \u2018as a proud product of our region\u2019s commitment to train its own lawyers; to develop a cadre of legal professionals who would have, in the words of Dr Nicholas Liverpool, \u201ca searching awareness of the realities of conditions in the region, a deep sense of service to the law, their community and their clients, yet retain the vision and zeal of law reformers\u201d. Mr Justice Burgess\u2026 is perhaps the finest exemplar of the vision and goals of those who established a Faculty of Law of the University of the West Indies. His entire adult life has been spent serving the region with distinction.\u2019<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0Described by CCJ President-Designate<\/a>, the Honourable Mr Justice Winston Anderson as an \u2018excellent scholar and jurist\u2019 and \u2018deeply admired and respected professor\u2019, he noted that Mr Justice Burgess was the first graduate of The University of the West Indies (The UWI) to be appointed a Professor and serve as Dean. Furthermore, as noted by several speakers, Mr Justice Burgess has the distinction of being the longest-serving Dean in the history of the Law Faculty.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In their remarks at the event, several speakers commended Mr Justice Burgess for the enduring legacy he has created. The Honourable Mr Justice Sherman Moore, CHB, former Justice of Appeal of Barbados noted that he \u201cleaves behind him an impressive record of service to the legal profession, both academic and judicial.\u201d Similarly, the Honourable Mr Justice Leslie Haynes, Chief Justice of Barbados remarked that \u2018as an academic, his impact is felt by the countless students of the law…who continue to utilise his many academic works. In the practice of law, his decisions are quoted on an almost daily basis\u2026\u2019 As a former student of Mr Justice Burgess, Ms Lisa Shoman, Caribbean Community (CARICOM) General Counsel also echoed these sentiments as she stated \u201cAs a judge, to write decisions is to speak, to create jurisprudence, to expand judicial boundaries \u2013 but to teach lawyers \u2013 that, well that is to be a planetary guide in our judicial universe, and Justice Burgess is a Jupiter among our guides.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Honourable Mr Justice Ivor Archie, ORTT, Chief Justice of Trinidad and Tobago in his remarks opined that Mr Justice Burgess\u2019 \u2018judicial opinions and legal reasonings display a depth of thought and wisdom that has left a lasting impact on both our regional jurisprudence and the broader regional and international community.\u2019<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In his response, speaking of his experience at the Court, Mr Justice Burgess remarked that \u2018\u2026the CCJ is an amalgam of fundamental aspirations of us Caribbean people. Aspirations aimed at bending the arc of the history of the common law towards the development of a truly Caribbean system of law that is respected regionally and internationally.\u2019 He also lauded the organisation stating although the Court had only been established 20 years ago, it had \u2018promptly established itself as a Court of excellence\u2019 and \u2018that it was a thought leader worthy of regional and international respect\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additional remarks were given by CCJ Judges, the Honourable Justices Rajnauth-Lee, Barrow, and Ononaiwu; Professor David Berry, Professor of International Law and Regional Integration Law at The UWI, Cave Hill; Mr Zakir Hafez, Executive Secretary of the Word Bank Administrative Tribunal; Mr John Jeremie S.C.; and Mrs Candace Simmons-Peters, Administrative Officer (Judicial) to Mr Justice Burgess.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Mr Justice Burgess will officially retire from the Court in April. The recording of the proceedings is available on the Court\u2019s YouTube channel at https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=1XvD9WoX3bY&ab_channel=CaribbeanCourtofJustice<\/a><\/p>
