Jordan’s team seeking High Court trial for misconduct charge

Winston Jordan

The attorneys for former Minister of Finance Winston Jordan are seeking to have the misconduct in public office charge pending against him tried in the High Court.

Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan is expected to hear arguments on the issue next month.

On Friday, the Special Organised Crime Unit’s prosecutor, attorney Tuanna Hardy, told the Magistrate that Jordan’s charge could be disposed of summarily via trial before the lower court.
