The High Court in London has ruled that parliament, not the government, must approve the start of Britain's withdrawal from the European Union, in a landmark decision that could delay Brexit.
It is one of the most constitutionally significant and politically volatile issues in a generation.
The verdict by three senior judges was closely watched around Europe and by the financial markets as it could derail British Prime Minister Theresa May's plans and affect her negotiating strategy.
Following the June referendum vote for Britain to leave the European Union, Ms May had promised to start formal exit talks by the end of March.
