GEORGE TOWN, March 2 — The Penang High Court today dismissed four assemblymen’s application for an injunction to prevent the Penang state assembly from tabling a motion to vacate the seats until their appeal is heard.

“If these three branches are left unchecked, there will be a clash that will destroy the doctrine of separation of powers which will affect the freedom of the three to act according to their respective jurisdiction,” he said when delivering the decision via email. “The plaintiffs’ application is to prevent the jurisdiction of the defendants who are expressly vested in their exclusive jurisdiction,” he said.

He said the court can only consider the issue for the status quo of the plaintiffs to be maintained or reinstated only if there is a decision that the status quo of all plaintiffs has changed or been removed.
