Legal researcher challenges judicial vacation at Supreme Court  

He wants the Court to direct the Chief Justice to make administrative and procedural arrangements, including rotational vacation sittings, to enable the Court of Appeal and Supreme Court to continue hearing and determining cases during the period.

Mr Gorni argues that the annual vacation, during which the Court of Appeal and Supreme Court generally do not sit, substantially restricts access to justice and delays the determination of cases.

Mr Elorm Kwami Gorni, a legal researcher, has asked the Supreme Court to declare Ghana’s two-month judicial vacation unconstitutional.
