On October 4th, Associate Justice Kathleen Salii granted a motion to dismiss a civil lawsuit against Palau's former President and Vice President. The case, which was filed in 2012, was filed against former President Toribiong and former Vice President Mariur in their official and personal capacity over the alleged misuse of Uighurs funds and alleged unconstitutional executive branch over-expenditures. Rachel Dimitruk, the Attorney for Plaintiffs confirmed to OTV that the court only dismissed the case in the defendants' official capacity, but will continue on in their personal capacity. Former Senators Remengesau, Jr., Whipps, Jr., Oilouch, Baules, and Chin filed suit against former President Toribiong and Vice President Mariur on accusations that U.S. Government "Uighur money" was misspent or inappropriately diverted to his family. At the time, they urged the Attorney General's Office to file the suit, but the AG did not, prompting the Senators to hire a private counsel and filed on their own behalf.
