incompatible with the said provision of the Constitutive Act. Therefore, the Court considers that the Application meets the requirement of Rule 50(2)(b) of the Rules. 49. The Court further observes that the Application does not contain any disparaging or insulting language with regard to the Respondent State, its institutions or the African Union, which makes it consistent with the requirement of Rule 50(2)(c) of the Rules. 50. Regarding the requirement stated in Rule 50(2)(d) of the Rules, the Court notes that the Application contains submissions by the Applicants supported with official documents from the judicial authorities of the Respondent State. The Application therefore fulfils this requirement as it is not based exclusively on news disseminated through the mass media. 51. The Court also notes that the requirement of exhaustion of local remedies under Rule 50(2)(e) of the Rules is met given that, prior to the filing present Application, the Court of Appeal, which is the highest judicial organ of the Respondent State had adjudicated the issues raised by the Applicants by a judgment rendered on 3 November 2004. 52. Finally, with respect to the requirement laid down in Rule 50(2)(g) of the Rules, the Court finds that the present Application does not concern a case which has already been settled by the Parties in accordance with the principles of the Charter of the United Nations, the Constitutive Act of the African Union, or the provisions of the Charter. The Application, therefore, fulfils this condition. 53. As a consequence of the foregoing, the Court finds that the Application fulfils all the admissibility requirements set out under Article 56 of the Charter, as restated in Rule 50(2) of the Rules, and accordingly finds it admissible. 14
