Appeal unlikely to stall Sabah state polls, legal insiders say

KOTA KINABALU: The 33 Sabah assemblymen, led by Tan Sri Musa Aman, have appealed the High Court's decision to strike out their suit for a judicial review on the Yang di-Pertua Negeri’s July 30 dissolution of the state assembly but legal insiders say the process will likely take time.

Legal circles in Sabah believe that the process of appeal and further appeals whichever way the higher courts decide was very unlikely to be completed by election day on Sept 26.
