SummaryUnofficial

A candidate whose application in the 2019 competition for appeal judges in Luanda and Benguela was rejected as late appealed against the Supreme Court's failure to rule on her request to suspend the competition, invoking effective judicial protection. In its reasoning the Court declared itself without jurisdiction, as there was no Supreme Court decision and ordinary remedies had not been exhausted.
