The Supreme Court has ruled in favour of General Secretary for the People�s National Convention, Bernard Mornarh who filed a petition challenging the Court�s earlier rule which states that the hearing of a petition against a presidential election shall be done on a daily basis, including public holidays.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled that it was unconstitutional to sit on holidays and further declared that Article 71B as well as Constitutional Instruments (CI) 71 and 65, are unconstitutional.
The Court also ruled that parties involved in election dispute can appeal the final determination of the case.
