Judge ‘too busy’ to rule on Madonna’s adoption case

MALAWI’S High Court yesterday postponed a ruling on whether rights groups could challenge pop star Madonna’s adoption of a Malawian child, saying the judge was too busy.

Lawyers for both sides in the case said they hoped the court would rule next week.

“The judge has not communicated to me or my colleague but we hear that he is very busy and he might rule next week,” said Justin Dzonzi, lawyer for the advocacy groups.
