The Supreme Court has announced December 18, 2024, as the date to deliver its judgment on the constitutional challenge against the Anti-LGBTQI+ Bill.
The case, filed by Richard Dela Sky in May 2024, has sparked widespread public interest and debate.
Proponents of the bill previously criticized the delay in the ruling, accusing the Chief Justice of stalling the process.
However, the Judicial Service attributed the delay to procedural issues, citing the failure of parties involved to submit required documents on time.
During a hearing on Tuesday, the court allowed the applicant to amend portions of his statement of case, granting the Speaker of Parliament and the Attorney General—both defendants in the case—time to file their responses.
Following these developments, the court adjourned proceedings and scheduled its much-anticipated ruling, which could significantly impact the future of the controversial bill.
