Synthesised from 2 Ghanaian sources
Oppong Nkrumah had asked the Supreme Court to restrain High Court judges from conducting criminal trials during the legal vacation, arguing that the warrants issued by Chief Justice Paul Baffoe-Bonnie authorising selected judges to sit were unconstitutional.
Oppong Nkrumah filed the case on August 14, 2026, challenging the Chief Justice's administrative warrants directing certain High Court judges to continue hearing criminal cases during the vacation, which runs from August 1 to September 30.
The Supreme Court has dismissed an injunction application filed by Member of Parliament for Ofoase Ayirebi, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah seeking to stop selected High Court criminal trials from continuing during the ongoing legal vacation.
