In the year 2017, Ms Miller won a case, the Minister stopped the release of the article 50 procedure, with the UK leaves the EU Without a vote in Parliament .

Sketches of you, my Lord Pannick QC said the agreement violated the legal principle of parliamentary sovereignty.

'threat to the policy"

The Prime Minister announced on 28. August he wanted the five-week Shutdown , a Process known as an agreement at the beginning of the next week.

This means that MPs and peers will not be back in the Parliament to 14. In October of The Queen 's speech, when Mr. Johnson says he will outline his "exciting programme" for the new term.

the opening of the hearing on Thursday , Ms Miller's lawyer, said Mr. Johnson saw the Parliament as a "threat to the implementation of its policy," and, in particular, the question of whether a deal could be with the EU.

Lord Pannick argued that the justification by Mr Johnson for the Suspension of Parliament - the introduction of a new programme of Legislation , which do not require a five-week Suspension .

The Minutes of the Cabinet conference call on 28. August were revealed after one of the journalists

The Minutes of the Cabinet of Ministers of the conference call, the Prime Minister had informed the colleagues about the progress of the talks with Brussels on the 28th of August.

In a summary, concluding remarks on the progress of the talks with Brussels, read The Minutes : "the completion of the Prime Minister said that the progress made with the EU should not be exaggerated, but it was substantial.

"While it was a good chance that a deal could be secured, there is a high chance that he can't do it. "

days earlier, in a BBC interview in the G7 summit, Mr Johnson had said that a deal was "touch and go".

show The Minutes have been agreed by the Minister, they needed to carefully examine, "messages", about the schedule, to avoid allegations that the Government tried that the Parliamentary control of its Brexit strategy.

Lord Pannick, referred to the other documents, in his address to The High Court - a note from Mr Johnson's own handwriting.

In a partially blackened hand-written note, Boris Johnson says, there is nothing particularly shocking about the agreement

He put the whole of September, said session of Parliament was introduced in a fuss, to show The Public that the MPs earn their Crust and he saw nothing "particularly shocking" about this agreement.

Lord Pannick argued this showed, Mr Johnson did not understand The Role of the Parliament to propose and consider Legislation , and hold the Government responsible, during "a critical period".

"didn't work for the courts,"

Lord Pannick, to emphasize the fact that the Court is invited to Express a view about the wisdom of Britain leaving the European Union , and what measures should be taken before 1. November.

"relates to Our case - and-that - with topics from Law ," he said.

Ms Miller - as Seen on The Right side in a Court sketch from Thursday - won a previous case, the Minister stopped the release of the article 50 procedure, Without a vote in Parliament

In answer, Sir James Eadie QC, representing Mr Johnson, arguing that proroguing Parliament was an inherently political act, not a matter for the courts and Law .

He also said the seats in Parliament , was a matter of constitutional Convention rather than Law , and judges cannot Tinker with the conventions, as they are a matter of political balance.

Sir James Gina Miller 's attorney rejected the claim that the agreement was intended to deprive Parliament of Escape, an ability to adopt Legislation , in particular, in relation to a no-deal.

Sir John Major , the former Conservative Prime Minister , was given The Go ahead with her legal action and intervene in the case, in writing, to Mr. Johnson's move is believed, prevent members Escape against a no-deal.

Lord Advocate James Wolffe QC, who is Scotland's senior Law officer, the Welsh Government and the shadow attorney-General Shami Chakrabarti have also given permission to intervene in writing.

It is not possible to assemble they believe a legal challenge to The Queen , the consent of the Suspension , but Sir John and Ms Miller, you can legally challenge the Council of The Queen 's Prime Minister gives her.

Today, the legal battle between Gina Miller and the Government , in its second major constitutional challenge coming to the power relationship between the Minister and Parliament - to a headline question and what a very fine judgment.

it Has? Boris Johnson , is obviously an abuse of his power, by advising The Queen to prorogue Parliament for an extraordinary five weeks and be able to do the judges do not mind if he did it

Ms Miller QC, Lord Pannick, avoided, suggesting that the Prime Minister have The Right to put a stop to the areas of parliamentary business in the run-up to The Queen the speech.

He focused on the manner in which Mr. Johnson went over the agreement and its duration, if "Time Is of The Essence ".

The result can feel academic, because the progress of the no-deal Brexit-blocking bill in the upper house.

But the Supreme Court could, what is the conclusion of the judgment-breaking, finally, to a rail on the sovereignty of Parliament .

What are the other legal challenges take place?

In Scotland, a group of politicians trying to overturn a Court verdict on Wednesday that Mr Johnson's hazards plan down Parliament before Brexit is, in fact, legal.

The Group of More Than 70 largely pro-Remain politicians, under the leadership of the SNP-MP-Joanna Cherry , argue that Mr Johnson, exceeds his powers and trying to undermine the democracy by avoiding parliamentary scrutiny before the UK, the EU is leaving on the 31. October.

According to Mr Doherty ' s decision, a British Government spokesman said he welcomed the Court 's decision and hope other similar cases, the pulled would be back.

In Belfast, a voice for the victims of the problems is due to the in order to bring a case, argued on Friday that no-could jeopardize the deal, the Northern Ireland peace Process .
