The 246 applicants returned to the National Court today where a consented amount was supposed to be finalised between their lawyer and the Correctional Service.
This however did not eventuate as counsel for the Correctional Service wanted time to consult the new SC commissioner over the issue.
Justice Ambeng Kandakasi who presided over the matter today allowed an adjournment to March 16 where parties will be expected to come back before him and make submissions.
A finalised amount of how much the retired officers should be paid will be decided from there.
