The Judicial Service Commission (JSC) is advertising for judges and magistrates.
In notices in today’s Stabroek News, the JSC said that applications are invited from suitably qualified persons for appointment to the position of magistrate to serve in the 10 administrative regions and judges.
Questions had been raised as to how the new JSC would go about filling the vacancies in the magistracy and the judiciary and there had been calls for these posts to be advertised as opposed to relying on the traditional system of inviting persons to fill these on the basis of their known qualities. Critics have said that system is purely subjective and not transparent.
