Belmopan 25 November (BelizeBlog.com) Belize Electricity Ltd., a subsidiary of Canadian energy giant Fortis Inc.has asked for the recusal of the brother  of Prime Minister Dean Barrow in a a critical Belize Supreme Court of Appeals action.

Channel Five reported today that: There have been many unusual developments in the judiciary lately,
including a public war of words between the Attorney General and the
Chief Justice.

Today, News Five has learnt of an application being made
by the Belize Electricity Limited seeking leave to rehear an oral
ruling by the Court of Appeal given on October twenty-seventh before a
reconstituted panel of judges, which would not include Justice Denys
Barrow. B.E.L. is also requesting the court to hear the application
before a written judgment is handed down. Justice Barrow sat as a
justice of the Court of Appeal along with Justices Mottley and Morrison
in the case between B.E.L. and the Public Utilities Commission of Belize  in which
B.E.L.’s appeal was over the jurisdiction of the P.U.C.

B.E.L. wants
the matter reheard because Justice Barrow’s son Kimano is a
Commissioner on the PUC in whose favour the Court of Appeal ruled.
Kimano was appointed commissioner by his uncle Prime Minister Dean Barrow, who is
the brother of Justice Barrow.More Here
