Fidela Corbin-Lincoln was yesterday sworn in as a Puisne Judge and President David Granger said that the integrity of the judiciary requires, in part, that judicial vacancies be filled expeditiously and meritoriously, a release from the Ministry of the Presidency said yesterday.

Justice Corbin-Lincoln, who previously served as Master/Chamber Judge of the Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court, said that she looks forward to bringing her experience to bear in her new appointment. “I always wanted to return home and the opportunity came and I thought this was a good time to come home,” she said, according to the release.

Corbin Lincoln holds a LLB from the University of Guyana and a Legal Education Certificate from the Hugh Wooding Law School.
