The Attorney-General’s Department has secured an extension of time from the Supreme Court to file its statement of case in the ongoing legal challenge against the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP).
The suit, initiated by private citizen Noah Adamtey, challenges Parliament’s authority to establish the OSP.
During proceedings on Thursday, April 16, the court granted an application by the Attorney-General’s office to extend time, after counsel for the State cited “unavoidable administrative constraints.”
