CAIRO – A Cairo court has postponed a key choice on overturning the ruling military council's order to disband the Islamist-dominated assembly.
Cairo's Administrative Court on Tuesday set July 7 as the date for verdict on the legality of dissolving the 498-member assembly, a case brought by a number of lawmaker.
The same court postponed to Sept. 1 an appeal that required to disband a 100-member panel appointed by parliament to draft a new establishment.
The ruling military council has used court decree and constitutional declarations to stop Islamists from controlling all the executive and lawmaking branches after last year's uprising that ousted Hosni Mubarak's authoritarian command.
On Sunday, Islamist Mohammed Morsi of the fundamentalist Muslim Brotherhood was declared Egypt's first freely chosen president in contemporary history.
