ABSTRACT
It is difficult to examine the subject of this chapter, the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ), without close reference to the several issues discussed in the previous chapter, ‘The Privy Council’, as the two courts are so inextricably intertwined, the very existence of the one being determinative of the other. It is the perceived disadvantages of the Privy Council that propels a Caribbean final Court of Appeal into being. As such, this chapter should be read with the previous chapter, since the discussion in the latter is essential to the examination of the issues involving the CCJ.
