Brosius who has held in contempt for bringing the reputation of Judge Eva Mappy Morgan and the Commercial Court to public disrepute by accusing them of diverting 3.4 million dollars into their Personal Account.
Speaking in Court Wednesday, Judge Paegar said without evidence, Brosius took the public radios and newspapers and made the above allegations.
According to Judge Peagar, the case involving Brosius and Monrovia Oil Trading Company (MOTC) was filed in July 2013 at which time the Commercial Court was not in existence.
It is said the transactions in which Judge Mappy is being accused of was done between 2006 to 2010, which was done by Ducor Petroleum and MOTC without the consent of Brosius.
Meanwhile, the court has given Brocius two weeks to provide a Lawyer and if he can not secure a one, the court will select a Public defender to represent him.
Information received by OK FM suggests that Cllr. Tiawon Gonglo has filed a Writ of Prohibition to the Supreme Court on his incarceration order by Judge Eva Mappy-Morgan.
On Monday, Commercial Court resident Judge Mappy-Morgan ordered the incarceration of Cllr. Gonglo and others for twenty days for their alleged failure to properly advise their client, Brocius in an ongoing case before the court.
The court said the failure on the counselors’ part to manage their client, made him to discuss in public and on radio a case which is still pending before it, an act the court considers as prejudices.
