DPP Nchito reported to LAZ for criminally cheating Judge Gregory Phiri
Deliberately misleading the Court is a very serious matter that normally leads to contempt proceedings. I have contemplated the issue of contempt proceedings against Mr. Nchito and Dr. Kalinde, who are Counsel on record in relation to the Order of 28thJanuary, 2010. I will not take that route because this matter has been going round and round in circles without completion long after the Judgments of the Courts. Instead, I have preferred to reprimand Mr. Nchito and Dr. Kalinde for misleading this Court in the manner they did. Senior Lawyers should not use the maze of procedures to abuse the Courts and their own clients for the sake of prolonging unmeritorious litigation after final Judgments. Misleading the Court and presenting draft Orders that do not conform to the Orders actually given is a definite sharp practice that ambushes the Judge sitting at Chambers with full confidence and trust of the Advocate who drafted and presented the Order.
