Blow to Egyptian regime: Court rules legislature illegally elected

Posted: 02 Jun 2013 06:49 AM PDT

FILE - In this file photo taken on Tuesday, April 23, 2013, Egyptian Shura Council members meet to discuss the government's 2013-2014 budget at the Shura Council, Parliament's upper house. When voters went to the polls more than a year ago to vote for Egypt's upper house of parliament, most presumed the legislature would be the powerless talk shop that it had been for 30 years.

Thanks to the twists and turns of the rocky transition that followed Egypt's 2011 uprising, the Shura Council finds itself the sole law-making body in the land. This accidental legislature is now back in the spotlight ahead of an expected court ruling on its disputed legal status _ a move that could see it dissolved. (AP Photo/Amr Nabil, File)Egypt's highest court ruled on Sunday that the nation's Islamist-dominated legislature and constitutional panel were illegally elected, dealing a serious blow to the legal basis of the Islamists' hold on power.
