Lawyers representing petitioner James Puk, who is disputing William Duma’s election, will return to court next week Monday for directions.
Parties in the petition appeared in court today where the National Court handed down its ruling on two motions.
One of the motions, filed by Hagen Open MP, William Duma, asked the court to dismiss the petition even before the objection motion, which challenges the competency of James Puk’s petition is heard.
The National Court dismissed this motion as it was misconceived.
