The Supreme Court has refused a preliminary legal objection against the certiorari application by the National Democratic Congress (NDC), which is seeking to quash a ruling by the High Court for the re-collation of the parliamentary results in six constituencies.
Gary Nimako Marfo, the lawyer for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) parliamentary candidates for the six constituencies, filed the certiorari application with the court on Friday (27 December) on the grounds that the NDC had neglected to include the High Court’s decision.
Nimako urged the court to reject the application, arguing that such a failure was in violation of the court’s rules.
The court’s five-member panel decided that even though the high court’s ruling was not initially submitted by the NDC, it was later submitted as a supplemental affidavit.
The court chose to overlook the NDC’s violation of the rules and grant the application.
The five-member panel is presided over by Justice Gabriel Pwamang, with Justices Henrietta Mensa-Bonsu, Eric Gaewu, Henry Kwofie and Richard Adjei-Frimpong as members.
