Actually there is.

Last year when the Ministry of Foreign Affairs election was disputed, the declared winner was both denied their seat and the election was effectively suspended until a resolution was found in the Courts.

The delay was caused by extrajudicial methods and its subject was unrelated to the matters dealt with by this case.
