instruments applicable and particularly as enshrined in the relevant provisions of the African Charter. Those rights having been violated, accrues the Applicant a bonafide right to appropriate remedies. In view of this, the Applicant submitted a catalogue of reliefs among which is for this Court to restore the Applicant to his previous position as a justice of the Supreme Court of Liberia. This Court is well guided that the appointment and dismissal of the Applicant being both political and legal decision, is under the exclusive jurisdiction of the member state. It is within the purview of this Court by virtue of its mandate to provide and shall ensure sufficient remedy for the violations of the Applicant’s rights occasioned pursuant to his impeachment trial by the Respondent. 174. This Court also observes that an order for reinstatement will automatically cater for all the claims of the Applicant for payment of loss of earning and other entitlements. X. COSTS: 175.
