Hearing on 5th Amendment adjourned for one day
Tuesday, 19 January 2010
The Appellate Division of the Supreme Court adjourned Monday the hearing for one day on the leave petitions seeking permission to file regular appeals against the High Court verdict that declared the Fifth Amendment of the constitution void and illegal.
A Bench headed by Chief Justice set the new date today (Tuesday) while the counsels for the petitioners sought eight weeks' adjournment with the plea that they need time to take preparations for participating in the hearing, saying it was a very important case, reports BSS.
