He is seeking the orders of the court to have Potape charged with contempt of court for allegedly breaching an order of the court from May 26.
The contempt proceeding arises from a judicial review filed by Bando regarding his suspension on April 12.
Bando alleges that Potape disobeyed a court order from May 26, restraining him from interfering with the Hela executive council.
It is alleged that despite that restraining order, Potape went ahead and appointed a new provincial Election Steering Committee for the Hela Province.
