Sabah lawyers to pursue judicial review of 40% special grant in Court of Appeal after stay decision

KOTA KINABALU: The Sabah Law Society (SLS) will not be deterred after its efforts to hold a judicial review against the Federal Government’s failure to conduct a review of the 40% special grant due to Sabah under the Constitution met with a stumbling block.

Its president Roger Chin said High Court Judge Datuk Ismail Brahim had granted the Federal Government's application to stay (suspend) SLS' judicial review proceedings in the High Court on Thursday (Feb 2).
