00:00A court has dismissed an appeal by former lawmaker Li Zhenxiu to allow her to remain in office.
00:06Li filed a lawsuit against the legislature and the Central Election Commission
00:10after being expelled from the Taiwan People's Party in April over alleged misconduct.
00:15This led to her losing her legislative seat.
00:18The Taipei High Administrative Court ruled that Li failed to follow proper procedure,
00:22saying she should have first appealed to the electoral authorities.
00:25Li served as a lawmaker for only about two months, and her eligibility was challenged due to her Chinese citizenship.
