Likud's tribunal rejected petitions challenging Haim Katz's reserved place on the party's next Knesset slate. The panel ruled that party chairman Benjamin Netanyahu may select Katz for one of eight reserved slots before the primaries, without waiting for their results. The decision lifts an interim order issued Tuesday that had delayed a party-secretariat vote amid conflict-of-interest claims. Netanyahu had announced plans to seek approval for reserved places for Haim Katz, Defense Minister Israel Katz and Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar.
