Vacation courts can conduct trials during legal vacation – Deputy Attorney-General to GBA
His comments come amid a disagreement over the scope of court proceedings during Ghana’s legal vacation, which runs from August 1 to September 30.
In a letter to the Chief Justice on Monday, August 10, the GBA said vacation courts were traditionally established to deal with urgent and interlocutory matters and did not conduct trials during the period.
According to him, judges authorised by the Chief Justice to sit during the vacation can hear both interlocutory and substantive proceedings in cases originating from their own courts.
