The Supreme Court has adjourned again hearing of the application seeking to injunct President John Dramani Mahama and the Council of State from determining whether there is a prima facie case in the petitions seeking the removal of the Chief Justice.
One of the five Justices presiding over the case, His Lordship Samuel Asiedu, was absent when the case was called.
Presiding Judge, Her ladyship Henrietta Mensah Bonsu explained that they 'have had problems and for unavoidable reasons have to adjourn.' She thus adjourned the case to May 6.
Filed by Old Tafo MP, Vincent Ekow Assafuah, the suit questions President John Mahama's move to consult the Council of State without first informing the Chief Justice or giving her a chance to respond to allegations raised in petitions against her, an action Assafuah argues breaches Article 146(6) of the Constitution.
