Philip Addison and his team of lawyers were asked to present a formal petition objecting to one of the judges to sit on the case after their request for an in-camera hearing was turned down but instead they wrote to the Supreme rescinding their decision.
They explain the u-turn is to make for an expeditious determination of the petition.
The petitioners are therefore asking the Supreme Court to fix a date for an early hearing of the joinder application.
