# The Western Cape High Court will today and tomorrow hear president Cyril Ramaphosa’s urgent bid to halt the work of Parliament’s Impeachment Committee until his review application of the Section 89 panel’s findings is finalised. In November 2022, the panel found prima facie evidence that Ramaphosa may have violated the Constitution and committed serious misconduct over the Phala Phala matter. In his application, Ramaphosa argues that allowing the inquiry process to proceed while the panel report’s legal validity is still disputed could cause irreparable political and reputational harm.
