In defence of terrorists (Part 2)
The head of the Chamber of Lawyers, Peter Fenech, should be pressed on whether he has accepted any payment from Yorgen Fenech over his theatrical charade that led to the strike by the lawyers in Court in defence of Yorgen Fenech. The local press is finally catching up to this story. The lawyer who made…

Consistently on the wrong side of history
By turning against the State in defence of Yorgen Fenech, the Chamber of Lawyers has extended its long tradition of placing itself on the wrong side of history. In the early 20th century, the legal-caste in Malta was one of the most parasitic sections of Maltese society. After Independence, lawyers in Malta largely failed to…

A visceral and a disgraceful criminal fraud: Peter Fenech
Peter Fenech has led the Chamber of Lawyers into its most disgraceful moment in history by striking on the basis of a lie. By conducting today’s circus, Peter Fenech has outed himself as a total fraud aiding and abetting Yorgen Fenech with a total lie. We have already confirmed with the MSS that no interceptions…

Even the government’s propagandists know that tomorrow’s lawyers’ strike is a total sham
It’s incredible how even the government’s propagandists are very well aware that tomorrow’s strike by the Chamber of Lawyers is a total sham, driven solely and exclusively in the interest of backing and defending Yorgen Fenech. There’s an ocean in between defending juridical rights and abusing these juridical rights to manipulate the rule-of-law with the…

Client-Lawyer conversations are NOT absolutely privileged
Lawyers participating in next Monday’s charade should be aware that they will be wittingly or unwittingly supporting Yorgen Fenech’s cause to have evidence against him ruled-out over Constitutional and legal grounds. They are also wrong legally and morally. Client-lawyer conversations are legally privileged conversations but they are not absolute meaning that the State can still…

The Chamber of Lawyers is aiding and abetting Yorgen Fenech with its ongoing dispute against the government
The Maltese Herald can confirm that the ongoing dispute by the Chamber of Lawyers against the government over alleged communication interceptions, is derived from an issue raised by Yorgen Fenech and his lawyer Charles Mercieca.

Employers’ and lawyers’ associations oppose the Government’s reforms on Magisterial Inquiries: civil society lawyers plan a Constitutional case
The Mata Employers’ Association and the Chamber of Lawyers have both released statements they are against the government’s reforms on Magisterial Inquiries. Both the organisations condemned the government’s over-reach over the Judiciary’s independence. Our story of today is also related with the Deputy-Prime Minister Ian Borg having once made a statement at the Party’s Conference…

Peter Fenech, a lawyer for all seasons and the case of Pio Valletta
I have always been amazed by the class of Maltese lawyers and other professionals who you find doing everything at once. These are the individuals whose name pops up in many different and varied sectors and eventually, become so frequent that you get to ask yourself, is this some kind of profession in itself? That…
