Council of Civil Service Unions v Minister for the Civil Service (1984), which held that the royal prerogative was subject to judicial review. R v Secretary of State for the Home Department, ex parte Fire Brigades Union (1995), which held that a minister's political accountability to Parliament did not render them immune from legal accountability in the courts.

Did this prorogation have the effect of frustrating or preventing the ability of Parliament to carry out its constitutional functions without reasonable justification? Argument was advanced by the Government claiming that the Inner House could not declare that any prorogation resulting from the advice was of not effect because the prorogation was a “proceeding in Parliament” which, under the Bill of Rights of 1688 cannot be impugned or questioned in any court; however, the Court ruled that the prorogation is not a proceeding in Parliament. Rather, it is something which has been imposed upon them from outside, not being something which members of Parliament can speak or vote on.Bowcott, Owen (16 September 2019c).

The court found that the government had not provided a justification for such a prorogation; the government had only provided the Nikki da Costa memorandum as evidence, which only justified a State Opening on 14 October, not the date of prorogation. The court also found that the government offered no justification for a five-week prorogation when the normal period of preparation for a State Opening was four to six days, and that the da Costa memorandum did not take into account how the necessary scrutiny of any withdrawal agreement under the terms of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 could be scheduled.
