No final victory yet in Trinidad, says LGBTQ rights activist Jason Jones

Trinidad’s High Court overturned the nation’s colonial-era anti-sodomy law in 2018, but the case isn’t over yet.

Victorious claimant Jason Jones explains: “the Attorney General of Trinidad & Tobago has appealed the decriminalisation victory of 2018. That Appeal will be heard at the T&T Appeal Court in the first quarter of 2023. Both myself & the Attorney General have made it clear that whoever loses that Appeal will then appeal to the Privy Council in London for a final Supreme Court decision on the matter.”
