Still no file, so matters dismissed

Garendra Alexander Thomas has four fewer charges to worry about after he appeared in the District “A” Magistrates’ Court last Friday.

The 23-year-old joiner, of Redman’s Road, Deacons Road, St Michael, had been accused of having cannabis, having a traffickable quantity of the drug, having it with intent to supply and cultivating it on March 16, 2021.

Last Friday, prosecutor Station Sergeant Crishna Williams told the court that while there was a file, she did not have it with her.

“I know that on the next occasion I should have it so I am asking for an adjournment,” the prosecutor said.

However, attorney Simon Clarke, who represented Thomas, reminded the court that last Friday was supposed to be the final adjournment in the matter. (HLE)
