Fielakepa judgement on Friday [1]

Nuku'alofa, Tonga

Monday, November 30, 2015 - 18:03

A judgement over the legitimacy of the succession by Lord Fielakepa to the hereditary title Fielakepa will be delivered on Friday, 4 December after he was challenged in a land case brought by his nephew, Tupou Tongaliuaki Aleamotu’a, at the Nuku'alofa Supreme Court.

Mr Justice Scott will deliver his judgement at 10:00am after presiding over the trial from November 17-19.

As the eldest son of an older brother, Tongaliuaki (24) challenged the legitimacy of his uncle’s succession to the Fielakepa title after he was appointed by King Tupou VI in April this year.

The defendant Lord Fielakepa is the Commander of His Majesty's Armed Forces

The plaintiff, his nephew, is a student at the University of Canterbury in New Zealand.
