Fiji's solicitor-general, the recently reappointed Christopher Pryde, is accusing the New Zealand law society of double standards after it asked its members not to work for the interim regime. Mr says the country needs good lawyers more than ever, disagreeing with the President of the New Zealand Law Society John Marshall QC, who says New Zealand lawyers shouldn't accept appointments to any office under the regime.
