THE WEST Indies Cricket Board (WICB) Executive will hold a teleconference on Saturday in an attempt to find a much-needed resolution to the controversy which continues to affect cricket in Guyana.

The Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) has been locked out of their premises since earlier this month with the government of Guyana appointing an Interim Management Committee (IMC) to manage the affairs of the sport in that country.

The decision has not gone down well with the GCB or WICB who have both expressed their dissatisfaction with the usurping of the GCB’s authority and have rejected all decisions made by the IMC.

It seems that the WICB has thrown its hat squarely in the GCB ring, without giving the IMC a chance to try and make improvements to the structure of Guyanese cricket....

Let's see if they take action against players who join the IMC's team. I sense another court case for Ramnarine. Could it be 11-0?
cool

Beats me.
How /Why should the WICB continue to recognise a Board that does not exist LEGALLY.
Hasn't the board been dismantled,since it was illegal.?
Doesn't the country where this ILLEGAL entity was formed has the right to revoke it,since it was in violation of that country's laws?
The entity FIRST must be recognised by its country only then should the WICB & ICC follow
suit.

the judge did rule that the gcb is a legal non-entity and hence could not hear the matter that ms. angela haniff filed. he then within that ruling advised the executive to take a series of steps to rectify the problem.

it is not a lie. the document that chang wrote is a ruling on the case haniff vs ramsay ali. he dismissed the case since the gcb and the bcb were both legal non-entities.

So if a case is dismissed due to the fact that it CANNOT be heard, how is that a RULING?

the judiciary is empowered to make rulings on what it can hear and what it does not have the jurisdiction to hear. the court has to make a ruling whether it can hear a matter or not based on law.

NO! A ruling is a directive. Simply stating that a matter is outside a courts jurisdiction in NOT a ruling. Putting it another way, he did not direct that the parties have to take further action to be registered correctly so that the matter would then be heard, THAT would be a ruling.

Acting Chief Justice rules in favour of GCB executives
Written by
Monday, 22 August 2011 21:00
ACTING Chief Justice Ian Chang yesterday upheld a motion to have the injunction, filed by Ms Angela Haniff in her capacity as Secretary of the Berbice Cricket Board against the Ramsay Ali-led executives of the Guyana Cricket Board (GCB), struck out on the grounds that it was bad in law and misconceived. Attorney-at-Law for the defendants Roysdale Forde told Chronicle Sport he moved for the injunction to be struck out, saying it was unlawful to which the Acting Chief Justice granted same, paving the way for Ali and his elected executives to resume the administration of cricket in Guyana, having been elected to do so unopposed on Sunday July 10.
According to Forde, Haniff’s action held no merit, since the court has no jurisdiction over the matter, leaving the rules of the organisation to be applied, as the GCB is an unincorporated body, hence he had no other alternative than to move for the matter to be struck out and dismissed.
Haniff had on July 21 sought an injunction against Ali and his executives, stating that the purported Annual General Meeting of the GCB was unconstitutional, unlawful, illegal, ultra vires, null, void and of no effect.
She also sought for a declaration that the purported election of office-bearers at the GCB’s AGM at which Ali and his executives were elected was unconstitutional, unlawful, illegal, ultra vires, null, void and of no effect and asked that they be removed from office while at the same time, restraining them from acting in the offices they were elected to at the July 10 elections.
During the summarising of the no-case submission by Forde, Acting Chief Justice Chang ordered that the past executive, led by Chetram Singh, oversee the day-to-day affairs of the GCB, until such further notice is given.
Following yesterday’s ruling by the Acting Chief Justice, Ali has summoned a meeting which will be held today in the GCB’s Boardroom, to discuss among other things, Guyana’s hosting of the Pakistan female team’s tour of the West Indies and the recently concluded West Indies Cricket Board Regional Under-19 tournament, which was hosted by the GCB under Singh’s watch, amongst other things.
“The work of the GCB has to continue and I hope that this ruling puts an end to the entire legal charade that has been taking place in recent times, with regard to the administration of cricket in Guyana” said Ali.

chronology of events:

1. haniff files for injunction. chang grants injunction.
2. one month later ford files motion that the injunction be lifted on the grounds that teh gcb is not a legal entity. chang ruled that the motion be upheld because the gcb is a legal non-entity and lifted the injunction.

it was a ruling to uphold ford's motion.
