Magistrate Antonio Mizzi has indeed waited far to long for this crucial,appointment to a judge when we all knew how desperate we required more judges to deal with the work overload. Congratulations for your new well deserved appointment it seems that sometimes justice does seem to prevail despite the fact of all the obstacles faced not to effect any changes by the previous administration.
