After turbulent weeks and many problems, the Turquoise-Pink government nominated four new highest judges. However, the procedure is not undisputed.
It has been in the maximum courts for weeks. Problems are spreading about the government, which had stated in its program which party can fulfill which position at the Administrative Court (VWGH) and the Constitutional Court (VFGH). Unlike the EU guidelines.
Babler has nominated two judges
Now the government has responded and nominated. VICE Chancellor Andreas Babler (Spö) Name Angela Julcher at VFGH SHE was already a replacement member and on the VWGH Bettina Maurer-Kober (also from his own house). Bablers were very important to fill in the open positions with two women, it was said from festive circles. Both renowned judges.
The other nominations followed on Wednesday. The head of the Constitutional Service, Albert Posch, must become the new president of the VWGH on the proposal of Chancellor Stocker (ÖVP), and the Council of Ministers also presents as the new VFGH judge on the advice of Neos Beate Mein traveler Wu Wu professor Stefan Perner.
Criticism by former Minister Zadic
The appointment is officially made by federal president Alexander van der Bellen. The government praised a transparent selection process. Criticism came from the greens. Ex-Justice Alma Zadic Minister: “Political appointment is contradicted by European standards. In many other countries, senates of judicial staff are at least involved in the decision.”
