The Court of Appeal, Lagos Division, on Thursday dismissed an
appeal by a former Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Dr. Joseph
Nwobike.
Nwobike had approached the appellate court in a suit challenging
his conviction by the Lagos State High Court.
Nwobike was convicted in April 2018 of attempting to pervert the
course of justice by inducing court registrars to ensure that his
cases were assigned to his preferred judges so he could obtain
favourable judgments.
Justice Raliat Adebiyi convicted the senior lawyer of 12 counts
and sentenced him to one-month imprisonment.
Nwobike was later stripped of his SAN rank by the Legal
Practitioners’ Privileges Committee, following his conviction for
corruption.
Displeased with the lower court’s verdict, the senior lawyer had
proceeded on appeal.
However, the Court of Appeal, in its judgment on Thursday
(today), dismissed Nwobike’s appeal, holding that it lacked
merit.
The appellate court affirmed his conviction on counts 7, 8, 9,
10, 11, 13, 15, 16 and 17.
