Uganda v. Commissioner of Prisons, Ex Parte Michael Matovu, [1966] 1 EA 514, is a decision of the High Court of Uganda in which Hans Kelsen's "General Theory on Law and State" and the Political Question Doctrine were considered in determining the legal validity of Uganda's 1966 Constitution. The 1966 Constitution had come into place following what was by and large, a coup d'état executed by Apollo Milton Obote when he seized all powers of government and suspended Uganda's 1962 Independence Constitution, eventually leading to its abolition.
