High Court to hear petitions against coalition deal, whether Netanyahu can form government
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe High Court of Justice decides to hear petitions against the coalition deal between the Likud and Blue and White parties, as well as against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s eligibility to form a government due to his indictment on corruption charges.
The court gives the sides until Sunday to submit their responses.
The High Court has previously declined to hear petitions against Netanyahu being allowed to form a government, saying it would be premature to do so then as the premier had not yet been formally tasked by President Reuven Rivlin with forming a government.
