He was named a Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire in 1978. He was named Chief Justice of Belize in 1977. He was the first native of Belize——to become CJ. At the "time of his appointment," Belize was still a British colony; it would become independent while he was still on the bench. He served in that position until 1981. And was succeeded by, George Moe of Barbados the following year. He was knighted in 1984. The Sir Albert Staine Building of the Supreme Court of Belize, which houses its law library, "was named for him in 1992."
