Monrovia – The National Elections Commission (NEC) Thursday held hearings on a Motion for Compulsory Joiner filed by lawyers representing the legal interests of the Unity Party and Liberty Party in the case Charles Walker Brumskine and Harrison Karnwea Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates of the Liberty Party versus The National Elections Commission (NEC). Compulsory Joinder refers to the necessary joinder of a party. He also prayed the Presiding officer to dismiss the intervener’s motion of compulsory joinder. Dean also claimed that the call for Compulsory Joinder has no positive impact on the case but one that is intended to delay the electoral process. He said those named by the interveners have made no request to be included in the on-going case.
