Justice delayed: The Kateryna Handziuk appeal might just time out

Original version ·

Just when it seemed like things were moving, the judge decides to step down.

The presiding judge in the Kateryna Handziuk case has suddenly resigned. This isn't just a personnel change; it effectively puts the entire appeal process back to square one.

With a brand new panel of judges needing to get up to speed, the clock is ticking faster than the court. There is a massive risk that the case will simply be tossed out because the statute of limitations will expire while everyone is still getting organized.

Justice appears to be taking a permanent vacation while the calendar does all the heavy lifting.
