The electorate doesn't get to case votes on the outcome of legal cases.

You're either obdurate or ignorant. Maybe both.

Turkey has a democratically elected parliament.It passed the law of turning Hagia Sophia into a mosque; Erdogan only signed the decree after the court judged.
You obviously don't know what courts are; or intentionally acting a fool.
