The hearing date for Member of Parliament, Manoa Kamikamica’s permanent stay application has been set for March 25th, 2026.
When Suva High Court Justice Siainiu Fa'alogo Bull questioned whether Kamikamica's matter is before another court in relation to a related matter.
Kamikamica's counsel, Wylie Clarke replied no but an identical issue is before Justice Dane Tuiqereqere.
He also informed court that they are going to serve subpoenas on 2 people and no further affidavits to be filed.
Clarke says it is entirely within the court's discretion to continue the matter before Justice Bull, or proceed as the court sees fit, as they are ready to set down a timetable.
He says two memorandums were filed yesterday.
The State has been given 4 weeks to respond to the memorandums, keeping in mind about the legal vacation.
The matter will be called on the 5th of February next year for mention.
Meanwhile, Kamikamica is charged with one count of perjury and one count of giving false information to a public servant.
It is alleged that between 1st December 2024 and 31st March 2025 in Suva, Kamikamica knowingly made a false statement under oath, claiming that he had nothing to do with the appointment of the FICAC Commissioner.
It is alleged that Kamikamica provided the same false information to the Commissioner of Inquiry.
