This Sunday's edition of JoyNews’ The Law tackled the high-stakes issue of compliance with Supreme Court orders.
Following recent events in which the Speaker of Parliament declared four seats vacant—only for the Supreme Court to stay that decision—Parliament has twice adjourned without a quorum due to the absence of NPP MPs.
Tensions arised as NPP MPs accuse the Speaker of defying Supreme Court orders, even threatening to cite him for contempt.
In light of these developments, The Law dived into the critical importance of adhering to Supreme Court rulings, the repercussions of defiance, and the potential governance disruptions stemming from vacant parliamentary seats.
