Court Rejects Netanyahu’s Request to Shorten Testimony in His Trial
Judges at the District Court refused Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s request to cut 3.5 hours from the hearing scheduled for tomorrow in his case. The decision came after an agreement had already been reached, but the court said no evidentiary basis had been presented to justify shortening the proceedings.
The ruling was reported in the context of the criminal case, State of Israel v. Benjamin Netanyahu. The hearing was set for the next day, and the request would have reduced the planned session by three and a half hours.
According to the judges, the absence of supporting evidence meant there was no reason to change the scheduled testimony time. The report did not say whether Netanyahu will seek another adjustment or whether the hearing will proceed as planned.
