Unofficial summary in English. The judgment is published in Portuguese only, and only the Portuguese text is authentic.
The Democratic Alliance of Angola (ADA) coalition, formed by the PRS and the PDPS, applied for registration to contest the legislative elections of 5 September 2008. The Court rejected the application, finding that the person who signed on behalf of the PRS lacked standing, since the leadership formally recorded in the party's file prevailed, which left the coalition with a single party. It held that the PRS candidacy submitted by that leadership prevailed.
