The Supreme Court has scheduled May 6, 2025, to hear injunction applications challenging the petition seeking the removal of Chief Justice Gertrude Sackey Torkornoo from office.
A panel of four justices, chaired by Justice Osei Bonsu, announced the new hearing date on Wednesday, April 16, explaining that the adjournment was due to "unavoidable reasons." The fifth member of the panel, Justice Samuel Asiedu, was absent when the case was called.
During the previous hearing, former Attorney General Godfred Yeboah Dame, representing the Member of Parliament for Old Tafo, who is a plaintiff in one of the injunction suits, argued that the President must suspend any ongoing consultation with the Council of State until the court decides on the matter.
He contended that once an injunction application is filed, all related proceedings must be paused to avoid undermining the judicial process.
