Featured Emmanuel Ebo Hawkson Oct – 30 – 2024 , 15:01 The Supreme Court has dismissed an application by the Speaker of Parliament asking the court to vacate its ruling that hold the Speaker’s declaration of four seats in Parliament vacant.

The court’s fall docket includes high-profile disputes over age-verification to access pornography online, the marketing of flavored e-cigarettes to kids, regulation of untraceable “ghost guns,” and EPA limits on sewage dumped into the Pacific Ocean.
