The citizen is asking the Supreme Court to review the constitutionality of these vacation arrangements. The legal action targets the Attorney General and the Chief Justice.
The case questions the practice of suspending court sittings during these vacation periods. This includes the Court of Appeal and other courts.
The Judicial Service has established rules for when courts take breaks. These rules are now under legal scrutiny.
