Caribbean Court recalls VI Magistrate, Charmaine R. Rosan-Bunbury
Ms Penn-Sallah was one of six persons in the Judiciary to speak locally, at the opening and reminded the Court that the Late member, was never accorded the due respect with a Special Sitting after her passing.
Pointing out that the 2017-2018 opening Ceremony did not take place as planned—due to the damage caused by hurricanes Irma and Maria—Ms Penn-Sallah told the Judicial Officers present, “I wish to remember in particular, the Honourable Magistrate who died on Old Year’s Day last year –December 31, 2017.”
Privilege
She said Ms Rosan-Bunbury was not accorded the privilege that is accorded to every Lawyer who died; that privilege being a Special Sitting of the Court, in memory of a departed Officer.
“I sincerely believe that it would be deeply remiss of me if I did not this morning, today, mention and place on record our tribute and our thanks to the late Charmaine Rosan-Bunbury.”
According to Ms Penn-Sallah, the late Magistrate was a member of the Legal Profession and Judiciary who “served and she served well….Her sacrifices should not go unnoticed and unrecorded, and I place on record in this Court today our tribute and our thanks.”
Her Ladyship, the Honourable Madam Justice, Vicki A. Ellis was also among those to acknowledge the passing of Ms Rosan-Bunbury.
The Late Magistrate, who passed in a United Kingdom hospital, was born in the Virgin Islands on May 7, 1971.
