James Gyakye Quayson's plea to stop the trial from proceeding daily until the Assin-North by-election was held on Tuesday, June 27, 2023, was denied by the High Court in Accra.
The Court, presided over by Justice Mary Maame Ekue Yanzuh, ruled on Friday, June 23, that its decision to continue the case on a daily basis on June 20, 21, and 23 was legal.
The prosecuting attorney's attorneys did not establish a legal violation of the orders imposed, the presiding judge continued, necessitating a reconsideration.
"The purported disparaging remarks made by the Attorney General are the only new information.
Justice Yanzuh emphasized that adjournments were at the court's discretion and said, "These claims are not relevant for me to evaluate my decision.
The trial has been postponed to June 29, 2023, so Quayson's attorneys can continue questioning the first witness for the prosecution.
Because the particular court chamber was unavailable on Mondays, there would be a by-election on June 27, 2023, and there would be a public holiday on June 28, 2023, the court chose June 29.
