I watched the COA proceedings. I distinctly heard Justice Dawn Gregory-Barnes say that she was granting a stay of one day to discuss the issue of costs only. Attorney Sanjeev Datadin mentioned $2Million costs to be levied on the APNU+AFC lawyers.

It seems that she and Persaud agreed to give Forde 24 hours stay but she couldn't explain what the stay is for. My guess is that they wanted some time and the majority court gave them 24 hours. Bissessar wanted no part of that so she went on record that she denied that request from Forde.

That said, I don't see the CCJ even accepting any further appeals from anyone pretending to be acting privately so at the conclusion the current 24 hours there will be no shelter available to the Coalition.

In reality the Coalition's time ran out since elections day but they have just been refusing to acknowledge it and in doing so have burdened Guyana and its citizens with unimaginable hardships further burdened by the global pandemic.
