The High Court of Justice discussed last night the cancellation of an amendment to the Basic Law of the Government that determines when and how a prime minister can be placed under quarantine.

According to Cornell Law School: “Estoppel is an equitable doctrine, a bar that prevents one from asserting a claim or right that contradicts what one has said or done before, or what has been legally established as true,” and “Estoppel may be used as a bar to the re-litigation of issues or as an affirmative defense.”
The Deri Precedent is about the 1993 High Court decision that Arye Deri should be removed from his position as a minister following his conviction for bribery charges.
