The head of the Council of Magistrates Mario Fera assured that the judicial organization “has hit rock bottom” and said he was hoping to “read the draft bill described by President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner” before expressing a serious opinion.
The government today promulgated the Council of Magistrates reform, one of the six controversial bills contained in the judicial reform approved by the Congress, and called for elections of council members.
Two decrees signed by President Cristina de Kirchner today triggered heated criticism in the opposition and the first legal challenges filed by the Radical Party and the City's College of Lawyers.
