Very serious ,she also wants to keep dollars under her bed now. Ebi Ghana money.
The law have been used wrongly on a lot of people in jail if we are to go by CJ's logic on who sits on a case.

So the penalty for causing "moral and reputational damage" to Get-rude Torkonoo and "exposing her family to " Public ridicule" is $10m! Ei Getty! What a smart way to steal a cool $10m from the Ghanaian taxpayer!

The president is too soft, just sack this bloody fucking cunt. She was appointed by a president and can be sacked by a president , that's the gospel truth that's a political position if we have to be truthful to ourselves. it happens almost in all governments around the world. She should stop disturbing our ears with her noise.

Anyway, has Ghana got that much money to spew around? This lady should have known better. I think she wants to be heard.

YOU THINK YOU CAN JUST WRITE ANY STUPID ESSAY TO PLEASE YOUR STUPID UPPER VOLTA PRESDENT MAHAMA! THE CHIEF JUSTICE WAS CALLED TO SERVE HER COUNTRY AND SHE SWORE AN OATH TO DELIVER HER SERVICE. YOUR BURKINABE MAHAMA CANNOT JUST DECIDE TO TERMINÂTE HER SERVICE . OUR CONSTITUTION DOES NOT ALLOW ANY POLITICAL DISMISS ESPECIALLY AS A CHIEF JUSTICE. MANY ARE BLIND TO UNERSTAND THIS. JOHN MAHAMÀ. PREJUDICE TOWARDS HER SUSPENSION IS A CRIME AGAIINST HER DIGNITY AND HER COUNTRY. SHE SHOULD SUE TH E GOVERNMENT IN THE INTERNATIONAL COURT OF JUSTICE. ALSO TO ÉDUCATE THE. PEOPLE OF GHANA.

What a joke ? If every body who is fired ends up with monetary compensation, then some Ghanaians will asked for voluntary dismissal.
Does Torkornoo know the reputations and human rights violations that her court decisions have caused some Ghanaians whose cases she presided over?
The absurdity of her financial compensation is her request in dollars when our unit of currency is cedis .
She wants to be rewarded for her dismissal. Is that not interesting?

@Kofsam, you are right. Several years ago. I won a case in the high court. Two years later an Appel was lodged, by the Defendent. Then my docket disappeared. Judges on the panel were sick or absent. Things dragged on. Then, all of sudden the Defendant won, after discovering my docket.
Now, it's my turn to go to the Supreme Court. Four years later, there was a rush to hear my case. As a Plaintiff, I lost my case 14 years later..she was part of the panel of 5 SC judges, before her appointment as CJ. My Claim was not $10 million, just a mere thousands of cedis.

This suit is dead on arrival by the mere fact that Getrude is demanding hard currency instead of the official currency of ghana.
Since she wants to go political, so be it.

If this woman takes this case further from the Ecowas ,Court to the International Court of Arbitration which I believe she will very soon, trust me she will win and probably more. If you have a president surrounded by lawyers who can't win cases or present a watertight case in court unless a judge is fired, this is what you end up with. Don't blame Mahama, blame his legal advisors

First of all, the Ecowas court is not stupid, they know where the wind blows, they will not make a stupid judgement in her favor. Why? Because it will be wrong, because it would be questioning Ghana's constitution. Secondly, any adverse findings would promptly be challenged by government. And finally, any financial award they give her would, the government would just not honor it. So, Tokrlornu in her warped wisdom failed to calcite her moves properly.
