An independent legal advisor says the Western Cape High Court has no jurisdiction to evaluate a ruling of the Constitutional Court.
That's after President Cyril Ramaphosa approached the High Court last week, filing an urgent interdict application to halt the impeachment process.
He first wants a ruling on his application to review the Section 89 Independent Panel Report that found he had a prima facie case to answer over the Phala Phala matter.
Parliament's Impeachment Committee, which was directed by last month's Constitutional Court judgment to investigate President Ramaphosa, has resolved to oppose his interdict application if National Assembly Speaker Thoko Didiza fails to do so.
We are now joined by Constitutional Law expert from the University of Limpopo, Advocate Lufuno Nevondwe, wo will be unpacking this for us.
