| | This supervisory jurisdiction used to be exercised principally by the prerogative writs of habeas corpus, certiorari, mandamus and prohibition. | | | Therefore today in Belize in terms of Crown side practice and procedure even though we may have local statutory equivalent of the applicable remedies, there is a kind of umbilical cord with the practice and procedure in England in the absence of local rules governing this area of the law. | | | These cases come from jurisdictions (Barbados and Hong Kong) that, unlike Belize, have their own autochthonous statutory provisions in this area of public law which are radically different from the practice and procedure in this jurisdiction. |
