In a legal case from the Office of Prime Minister against his own justice department, the case stalled before going to the highest court in Dolgava, the Dolgavan Supreme Court. The case was expedited before the court, and today they have made their decision. The decision is a huge blow to the Prime Minister, and his case.

The case was put forward by the "Office of Prime Minister" in which they argued that the ongoing criminal investigations into Toivo Meri, are unconstitutional, and that Toivo's actions were "official acts" and apart of his duties as PM. The Ministry of Justice argued that this was a obstruction of justice, and that what Toivo was doing by bringing the Supreme Court into this, was a constitutional crisis. In a surprising twist, the Minister of Justice Krista Vītoliņa has held her integrity against her own Prime Minister, and carried out the investigations. 

The court decided over a period of two weeks and came to the unanimous decision that the investigation was lawful, and that the actions of Toivo Meri were against the Dolgavan justice system and the constitution. It was a major victory for the opposition as well, with the Leader of the Opposition calling the dysfunction in Dolgavan Government a "Conservative Civil War"...

Toivo still cannot be prosecuted when he is Prime Minister, and he cannot be removed except through a vote of no confidence, which his party cannot accept because it would lead to instant elections. The crisis is growing, and now the Supreme Court has stepped in, saving the investigations.

For Dolgava we are reaching unprecedented times, and we are seeing the erosion of democracy in the name of corruption...
