Goso's claim of prejudice was made in a written reply to a Cape Bar Council submission to the JSC, which is sitting in Cape Town this week. Though neither document was made available to the media, it appears that the council criticised some of her judgments, and also her diligence and punctuality.

In response, Goso said judicial appointments were "often steeped in deep rooted racial and gender prejudices".

Claims of inefficiency

Asked by Bizos how many heads of court divisions were black and how many white, she said she did not know. Bizos said of the 11, only two were white, and asked her if that was evidence of deep rooted prejudice.

Eastern Cape judge president Cecil Somyalo told Goso there were a few matters "of concern to me and the division generally" dating from her spell as an acting judge in the province.

One was when in January 2002 he "by accident" discovered more than 50 criminal review files heaped on her desk, and instructed her to deal with them.

A day later she told him she had disposed of the cases.
 
Goso was one of five candidates interviewed on Tuesday for three posts on the Cape bench.
How does a person with such a reputation get selected for interviews?
Next they're going to tell us she doesn't even have an LLB!! (remember Baloyi)
