The Supreme Court dismissed Jack T.'s appeal against the Prosecutor General's decision refusing to extend his prosecutorial service beyond age 65. The court noted that while the law allows for extension up to age 70, it is discretionary and based on objective service needs and the prosecutor's specific circumstances, which were not favorable here. The court rejected the appellant's argument regarding the lack of evidence for health assessments, clarifying that the decision was not based on current health status but on age and a lack of special circumstances justifying an exception.
