[size=52]Al-Federah responds to a lawsuit against the Communist and the Iraqi nation against Al-Halbousi[/size]

[size=45]The Federal Supreme Court rejected a lawsuit brought by the Iraqi Communist Party and the National Umma Party against the Speaker of Parliament, Muhammad al-Halbousi, regarding the election of the President of the Republic.[/size]
[size=45]A document issued by the Federal Supreme Court stated that the court considered a lawsuit filed by Raed Fahmy, Secretary of the Iraqi Communist Party, and Muhammad Hussein Reda, Secretary-General of the Iraqi Ummah Party, against Speaker of Parliament Muhammad al-Halbousi.[/size]
[size=45]The document added that the two plaintiffs requested to oblige Al-Halbousi to implement the text of Article (72/Second/B) of the Constitution of the Republic of Iraq, which states that “the President of the Republic shall continue to exercise his duties until after the elections and meeting of the new House of Representatives, provided that a new President of the Republic is elected within thirty days.” From the date of the first meeting of the Council. She pointed out that Fahmy and Reda confirmed that the failure to elect a new president of the republic led to delaying the formation of the government and the consequent obvious damages, most notably the failure to ratify the state's general budget, and that the members of the House of Representatives by boycotting the session of electing the president of the republic had perjured their oath.[/size]
[size=45]The document indicated that the court found that the plaintiffs' lawsuit was obligatory to respond in the form of a prior ruling on its subject based on the decision issued by the Federal Supreme Court No. (23 and its unit 25 / Federal / 2022), according to which the issue of exceeding the constitutional periods was addressed and the non-implementation of what was stated in Article (72 /). Second / b) of the Constitution.[/size]
[size=45]The document indicated that the previous court decision stressed the election of the President of the Republic within a short period that is commensurate with the will of the constitutional legislator and the supreme interest of the people, which necessitates completing the formation of the federal authorities within the benefits stipulated in the Constitution, and since this ruling was related to the application of Article (72 / second / b) This means that the plaintiffs’ lawsuit is obligatory to respond in the form of a prior ruling on its subject matter.”[/size]
[size=45]The Federal Supreme Court had previously confirmed that the presidential election session requires two-thirds of the total number of members of the House of Representatives to attend.[/size]
[size=45]It is noteworthy that the House of Representatives tried more than once to hold a session to elect the President of the Republic, but it could not because of the lack of a quorum.[/size]
