In dismissing her bid, Judge Nathan Erasmus essentially found the matters at hand had already been dealt with by the courts.
JOHANNESBURG - The Western Cape High Court has dismissed Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane’s bid to halt the parliamentary process to impeach her and bar President Cyril Ramaphosa from suspending her.
The high court further dismissed that challenge last year and the Constitutional Court also ruled against her in February. "The interim interdictory relief sought in the previous proceedings is indistinguishable from the interim interdictory relief sought in the present case. The only possible way we can differ from this finding is to hold the view that the previous full court was wrong. Not only was the previous full court, in our view, not wrong but it was unequivocally correct."
