Lawyers representing four parties that filed for an injunction and a constitutional interpretation of the amendments expanding the legislature’s powers yesterday urged the Constitutional Court to approve the injunction, saying the changes would damage the constitutional order.

The court began preliminary hearings on the injunction.

The Legislative Yuan passed the amendments on May 28 and promulgated them on June 26. It was followed by a historic first in which the Democratic Progressive Party’s (DPP) legislative caucus, the Executive Yuan, President William Lai (賴清德) and the Control Yuan all filed for a ruling on their constitutionality.
