Netanyahu's Defense Intends to Ask the Court to Halt the Proceedings

What the Defense Intends to Do

According to Maariv, Netanyahu's attorneys intend to petition the judges to halt the legal proceedings. The report describes the planned petition as a demand arising from the circumstances of the investigation.

What the Motion Will Be Based On

The stated ground is the doctrine of "defense of justice." According to the defense's position as presented in the report, a fair proceeding cannot be conducted because the investigation was allegedly carried out in violation of the law, and the violations committed were so severe that their consequences cannot be remedied. The source provides no evidence for these claims and does not state the prosecution's position.

What the Court Has Already Decided

The material provided contains no information indicating that the court has already considered or granted such a motion. The case number, the name of the court, the expected filing date, and the precise composition of the judicial panel are also not specified. Therefore, the report describes an anticipated step by the defense, not a judicial decision that has been issued.
