Hear ‘only important cases’, don’t call frivolous ones in open court; dismiss them ‘in chambers’ – AG to SC

Attorney General Godfred Dame has told the Supreme Court that it has to start dismissing, in chambers, all frivolous cases while giving attention to only important cases as part of measures to reduce the caseload.

“The time has come for the Supreme Court to reduce its caseload by prioritising the kinds of cases it actually hears”, Mr Dame suggested and proposed that cases without merit not be called at all in open court but dismissed in chambers.

The Minister of Justice was speaking at the opening of this year’s Bench, Bar, and Faculty Conference in Accra on Thursday.
