High Court Judge Justice Filimoni Jitoko has given the state time as per their request, to establish whether or not the Court Order preventing Fiji Times Publisher Evan Hannah's deportation was given on time and adhered to.
Representing Evan Hannah, Munro Leyes Lawyer John Apted and for the state, Solicitor General Christopher Pryde appeared in Judge Jitoko's chambers in the last hour.
Soon after Apted confirmed to our reporter at the court house that Pryde has requested more time to take instructions to establish whether there was proper service of the court order issued last night.
Apted said the court order was issued via fax to the immigration office.
The case has been adjourned to 10am on Wednesday.
It was earlier confirmed that Justice Jitoko signed an order late last night stopping Hannah's deportation and ordered that he be presented in court this afternoon.
