  "account": "The Supreme Court has unanimously rejected Kojo Oppong Nkrumah's attempt to reverse a ruling that barred the hearing of cases during legal vacation, according to wire material. The decision was made by a three-person panel on Wednesday. During the hearing, Oppong Nkrumah's legal team requested a delay due to the late delivery of documents from the Attorney-General's Department. However, the court denied the adjournment request and moved forward with the original case. Oppong Nkrumah had sought to challenge the hearing of specific cases during the legal vacation, but his injunction application was initially rejected, leading to this latest setback in his legal battle against the practice.",
  "summary": "The Supreme Court has unanimously dismissed an application by the Member of Parliament for Ofoase-Ayirebi, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, seeking a review of an earlier decision that threw out his application for an injunction against the hearing of cases during the legal vacation.",
