The judicial review hearing relating to former FICAC Commissioner, Barbara Malimali’s application will take place tomorrow where the court will review the powers exercised by the President, Ratu Naiqama Lalabalavu, in terminating Malimali’s appointment based on advice from Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka.
The court will review Malimali’s legal argument that the President did not have the constitutional authority to dismiss her as FICAC Commissioner solely on the Prime Minister’s advice.
Rabuka had first announced Malimali’s suspension and later confirmed that the President had dismissed her following his recommendation.
Suva High Court Judge, Justice Dane Tuiqereqere will hear the matter.
