Godfred Yeboah Dame, counsel for the suspended Chief Justice, Gertrude Torkornoo, has initiated legal action at the Supreme Court, seeking the removal of Justices Gabriel Pwamang and Samuel Adibu-Asiedu from the five-member committee constituted by President to investigate petitions for her removal from office.

In the suit filed on Wednesday, May 21, 2025, the Chief Justice is also requesting an interlocutory injunction to halt all proceedings of the committee pending the final determination of the case.

The committee, set up under Article 146 of the Constitution, includes Justices Pwamang and Adibu-Asiedu, as well as Daniel Yao Domelevo, Major Flora Bazuwaaruah Dalugo, and Professor James Sefah Dziasah.

The Chief Justice also wants the Supreme Court to restrain the entire committee from continuing any inquiry into the petitions lodged against her.
