Samoa's constitutional crisis could soon be resolved -- with the country's Court of Appeal on Friday holding an urgent hearing on multiple defied rulings to convene parliament.
Samoa's election was held on the 9th of April.
But the 51 successful MPs have yet to be sworn in.
The Court of Appeal will be interpreting the application of the country's written Constitution and might also validate the FAST party's ad-hoc swearing in, held in a tent because Parliament's speaker locked them out.
The incumbents have accused the Chief Justice of incompetence, asking for his recusal.
Dominic Godfrey is with me now to explain the latest developments.
