The battle over the forms with the same calligraphy has now moved to the Supreme Court. Both sides had asked for injunctions from the Electoral Hall. Both sides had asked the Electoral hall to recuse some of the Justices from the case. This morning the requests to be recused were rejected by the Electoral Hall, suggesting they may soon rule on the case. Well, this afternoon, the Constitutional Hall, with only three Justices present ruled that the Electoral Hall can not make a ruling on the case until the Constitutional Hall decides whether it will look at the case or not. A ruling like this requires quorum, which is made by having four Justices present. The Constitutional Hall has to invite its members three times if uorum is not achieved before it can then use alternate Justices. The question is? What will the Electoral Hall do now?
Note added: This article quotes lawyers who know what they are talking about. One of them says that it is the Electoral hall the ones that is competent to hear the case, so he calls on the Justices from that Hall to decide. Another says that this is a kidnapping of the Electoral hall. A third one says that the Constitutional Hall can not decide on a matter from another Hall, “just because it thinks it has supremacy over the decisions”. This lawyer suggests that the Electoral Hall should send the issue to the full Court because this is a conflict between Halls.
