A three-judge bench consisting of Datuk Abdul Karim Abdul Jalil, Datuk Abu Bakar Jais and Datuk Supang Lian today dismissed the application by Musa and 32 others on the grounds that the courts are not to interfere with matters decided upon by state leaders, such as the dissolution of state legislative assembly.

“We find there is no appealable error and therefore dismiss the appeal and affirm the decision of the learned judicial commissioner,” read Abdul Karim.
