Western Cape High Court Judge President John Hlophe said the State had been paying his legal fees since 2009, but this stopped without explanation in 2021.
CAPE TOWN - Western Cape High Court Judge President John Hlophe said the State was discriminating against him because it had stopped paying his legal fees for challenges against his pending impeachment.
However, the committee said with Hlophe’s appeal having failed to get off the ground, there’s no legal impediment to it continuing with the impeachment process against him. His lawyer, Barnabas Xulu, said this means that Hlophe’s legal representatives had not been paid since August of that year, but that the State continued to fund other parties involved in the litigation.
Hlophe is currently challenging the non-payment of his legal fees in the North Gauteng High Court and says he’s not responsible for the delays.
