Papua New Guinea's prime minister has urged the public to not get caught up in the country's political crisis which has ended up in the courts.
James Marape's government appears to have staved off a vote of no confidence by quickly passing the budget on Tuesday and adjourning parliament to April.
But the move is being challenged in court by the opposition which gained a majority last week following a mass defection of government MPs.
