Darshan Ramdhani QC has considerable experience in Public Law matters having dealt with such matters from all vantage points. As High Court Judge (Ag.) he has presided over and written significant judgments in Planning and Government decision-making matters which were the subject of written judgments. In particular, he dealt with the legality of approval given for ‘Gaming Licences’ related to slot machines to be granted to a company in St. Lucia. See the decision in Treasure Bay. He also dealt with the substantive hearing in the Bass case in St. Kitts and Nevis. These decisions have been widely referred to and in part set the tone for the court’s treatment of such matters. 
 
Ramdhani QC has also successfully prosecuted and defended such JR claims.
