Sir Bernard’s lawyer, Loani Henao, filed an appeal in the Supreme Court on Monday to challenge a National Court decision that was made on June 1 by Justice Leka Nablu.
The appeal was filed with an application to stay the decision of June 1.
The National Court on June 1 granted leave to Inspector Joel Simatab and Chief Superintendent Matthew Damaru to review a decision made by Magistrate John Kaumi, at the Waigani Committal Court last year, that dismissed a charge of judicial corruption laid against Sir Bernard.
There are six grounds in the appeal.
