Rev. Boateng dragged the legislator to court alleging he had demonstrated gross disrespect for the court by refusing to accept court documents.
The MP was captured in viral videos kicking some documents.
But the Court said the evidence presented by Rev Kusi Boateng was fraught with inconsistencies and doubt.
It, therefore, concluded that this fails to meet the legal standard of proof beyond a reasonable doubt.
The court, presided over by Justice Charles Gyenfi, also awarded a cost of ¢10,000 against Rev Kusi Boateng.
