Freedom Under Law, DA & Council for the Advancement of the South African Constitution challenge designation of Dr John Hlophe to the Judicial Service Commission

View descriptionShare

Legal counsel for Freedom Under Law, Advocate Wim Trengove, has argued that the proper priority of the Western Cape High Court is to establish how best it can address the issue of illegal designation. Trengove made the argument earlier today, as the court hears a legal challenge by the civil society organisation, in partnership with the Democratic Alliance and the Council for the Advancement of the South African Constitution, against the designation of Dr John Hlophe to the Judicial Service Commission. The applicants say the National Assembly's decision to vote for Hlophe's inclusion on the JSC was unreasonable and irrational. The House voted during a plenary sitting two months ago.
