The Federal Supreme Court decided to reject the case for dissolving the House of Representatives.
In light of its decision, the Federal Supreme Court held the following:
- The members of the House of Representatives, after being elected, do not represent themselves or their political blocs, but rather the people. Therefore, it was necessary for them to work to achieve what they were elected for, which is the people’s interest, not to be a reason to obstruct their interests and threaten their safety and the safety of the people completely
- The stability of the political process in Iraq requires everyone to abide by the provisions of the constitution and not to exceed it, and no authority may continue to exceed the constitutional periods indefinitely, because this is in violation of the constitution and the demolition of the entire political process and a threat to the security of the country and citizens
- The penalty imposed on the House of Representatives for not carrying out its constitutional duties is to dissolve the House when there are justifications for it
- The Constitution of the Republic of Iraq for the year 2005 has drawn up the constitutional mechanism for dissolving the House of Representatives in accordance with the provisions of Article (64/First) thereof
- The jurisdiction of the Federal Supreme Court is limited by Article (93) of the Constitution and Article (4) of the Federal Supreme Court Law and does not include the dissolution of Parliament
- The Constitution of the Republic of Iraq for the year 2005 did not overlook the regulation of the provisions of the dissolution of Parliament, and therefore there is no room for applying the theory of constitutional omission LINK

Ryan1216: Now how will we get Parliament dissolved and move forward??
DoTalktome: Frank has taught us parliament has been dissolved a long time ago. Pay no attention to articles saying otherwise.
Popeye7: Imo, thanks Samson for the news today, and everyday that you never fail to keep us informed about Iraq…
There is certainly something afoot, and with the ruling of Iraq’s Judicial council, this to me is good news in that all avenues have been exhausted for the public to see… In fact it would not surprise me if this delayed ruling was a diversion of sorts…
There is a day for this to occur that very few know… We are drawing closer to it… Lots of what is going on is filler so to speak till that day is reached…
The fact remains, and as Frank, and the teams have pointed out, Iraq’s parliament is nothing more than a lame duck, having no power at all… They neglected their constitutional duties as the articles pointed out… As we have all been reading, PM Kazemi has been exercising the authority granted him because of parliament lame duck status, and the very reason why he has been meeting with leaders of other nations on an ongoing basis for the past few months or so…
Remember the article earlier this week inviting him to the UN meeting that begins on the 13th of Sept?… It is the 77th session as MM posted a link for that 2 week meeting to transpire… Let’s see how the rest of the week plays out… But remember that everything is in order for this to go folks… Just a matter of when, and not if…
No rates, or dates, and do not allow for the distractions within some of the articles to lessen the enthusiasm.. There is always going to be drama propagated via the press… All the while everything is in order for this to occur… Again Imo, and in God’s prophetic time frame… Have a great day, and God bless… Thanks again for all here..

Samson: Legal expert: The Federal Court ruled that Parliament should be dissolved, but it did not fulfill it
07/09/2022 15:54:49
A legal expert explained the decision of the Federal Supreme Court regarding the response to the case for dissolving the House of Representatives.
Ali Al-Tamimi said in a statement that {Euphrates News} received a copy of it: “In the Federal Court’s decision, condemning the Iraqi parliament for violating the constitutional terms, which leads to the demolition of the entire political process and threatens its safety and the integrity of the country as a whole.
Its dissolution is based on Article 93 and Article 4 of the Constitution, that it is not within its competence to dissolve Parliament, but rather the matter is left to the political blocs and the executive authority.”
The Federal Supreme Court rejected, at its session today, the lawsuit submitted by the Sadrist movement regarding the dissolution of the House of Representatives. The court considered that its competencies are “determined by Article (93) of the Constitution and Article (4) of the Federal Supreme Court Law, and it does not include the dissolution of Parliament, but the penalty imposed on the House of Representatives for failing to fulfill its constitutional duties is to dissolve the Council when there are justifications.”
The court reminded the members of the House of Representatives that they “do not represent themselves or their political blocs, but rather the people, and therefore it was necessary for them to work to achieve what they were elected for, which is the people’s interest, not to be a reason to obstruct their interests and threaten their safety and the safety of the people completely.”
And she stressed that “the stability of the political process in Iraq requires everyone to abide by the provisions of the constitution and not to exceed it, and no authority may continue to exceed the constitutional periods indefinitely, because this is a violation of the constitution and the demolition of the political process completely and a threat to the security of the country and citizens.” She noted that “the Constitution of the Republic of Iraq for the year 2005 has drawn up the constitutional mechanism for dissolving the House of Representatives in accordance with the provisions of Article (64/First) of it.”
