Attorney General Asiamah Sampong opposed this request. He argued that it was premature because state attorneys wanted during the trial to prove the case with credible evidence.
He added that the court had already ruled on a similar petition filed by Lawyers for the NDC president.
Judge Asiedu rejected the request, ordering prosecutors to call their first witness to testify.
Mr Ampofo's lead counsel, Tony Lithur, informed the court that a request for a stay of proceedings had been filed.
Judge Asiedu said that he was not aware of the request and asked that the case continue.
Attorney General Asiamah Sampong, however, informed the court that the first state witness was not available.
