Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo has submitted her response to President John Mahama following petitions seeking her removal from office.
This development, per Accra-based 3mews.com, comes as the 10-day window granted to her to respond to the petitions elapses today, Monday, April 7.
The petitions were received by the President earlier last month and have triggered national attention, prompting legal and constitutional debates on the appropriate procedure for handling such matters.
Justice Torkornoo, in a letter addressed to the President last week, had requested copies of the petitions and asked for at least seven days to respond, in line with the requirements of due process and fairness.
