UK SUPREME COURT BREXIT RULING
LONDON, UK, 24 SEPTEMBER 2019

The U.K.’s Supreme Court is to give its verdict at 10:30 AM on Tuesday 24 September on the legality of British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's five-week suspension of Parliament.

Britain’s highest court is deciding whether Johnson acted improperly by shutting down Parliament for five weeks during the period before the country’s 31 October Brexit deadline, when the U.K. is scheduled to leave the European Union. The topic has deeply divided British politicians as well as the public.

The government says the decision to suspend Parliament was routine but activists, including many legislators, say Johnson overstepped his authority in an attempt to avoid scrutiny by Parliament.
