> A statement by Chief Justice Brian Moree and Chief Magistrate Joyanne Ferguson-Pratt on Friday said the behaviour does not reflect the standards and professionalism of court staff.

Bullshiit, of course it reflects the appalling lack of standards and professionalism of court staff, and there's the video evidence to prove it.

Besides, the public well knows that Moree and Ferguson-Pratt preside over a kangaroo court system. It's why both of them have been so ineffective in effecting any major changes for the better. Neither of them has the ability to fire anyone in our court system and its common knowledge that many should be dismissed for a host of very good reasons in addition to this latest video that has gone viral.

Moree has proven himself useless. He picked up the "Sir" from Minnis for agreeing to serve as CJ but has delivered nada in return for the Bahamian people.

Das we people

I hope those judges give out the $700 and $2,000 fines to the court staff for breaking the rules. Or do the rules only apply to joggers and people selling coconuts?

only the people toting water at the pump.

that's only if they broke the rules. If people had just been milling around noone would have said anything. The issue appears to be that someone was dancing. But that's how people dance at parties, I guess HR has to send out a list of dance *donts* before socials

... don’t hold your breath.

“ ... an internal enquiry into this incident has been launched ...”

What complete and utter bullshit. In the entire 47-year history of the Bahamas, no “internal enquiry” into miscreant behavior in a government office has ever amounted to a hill of beans and it won’t this time, either. And The Tribune, like everybody else, will just forget about it over time.

A court room? I thought that was some kind of strip joint.

I always wondered why that one court room had a floor to ceiling pole.

Standards and professionalism in court.

Weeeelllllll......monkey onkle.....!!!!!!! ...all dis coming from people examing all da evidence of the ACCUSED people in Court an getting paid salaries for it......AND then sentencing the guilty .....whichinin dey with their knowledge, nationally acclaimed knowledges, praised by many nationally proclaimed experts nationally, expertise......putting prisoners..into a HELLHOLE nationally called Foxhill Prison condemning the accused guilty they evaluated guilty.....prisoners under the their Govt Custody down known for decades by themselves.... to condict themselves to.... S$%^ into a bucket...!!!! ...and to live in jail cells like sardines....conditions condemned by international observers.!!!!!!!!

The system which for year after year for decades which wid da highest standards and professionalism....will so far seems continue while the dancing just done ......lil boys caight smoking joint getting jail and lifetime record ...etcetc...to have persons found guilty sentenced to serve day after day after day dey Court sent them to prison room.........prisoners ...daily human body finctions....condemned to s$%%^.....defecate into a state provided bucket.

If they were not working, and they were having a party when they were off. I do
not see anything wrong.

The woman was a big woman and the strips really showed up. When doc took the
picture with the Doctors they did not have on mask.

Some may call the dancing bad dancing, but that can of dancing seems to be very
common.

You obviously were disrespectful cheap trash yourself in your day.

What a storm in a teacup. The courts cannot be held in any lower esteem than most people who have had the misfortune to have to visit them already hold them. A little qwerking would actually have brightened up the procedures last time I had to appear in the Traffic Court.
