The selection of justices of the Supreme Court is a two-step process. (...) The participants recommended that a specific legal mechanism should be defined in the short term for each step of the selection process, with precise, motivated selection criteria and on the basis of the profile of the civil servant sought, and that transparent selection processes with public participation should be introduced. (...) Its purpose is to establish a ranking within the judicial service so as to be able to select persons for promotion and implement a selection system based on a competitive examination, beginning with magistrates’ courts.

The procedure envisaged by the Law with regard to the selection of candidates is extremely cumbersome. In the opinion of the Special Rapporteur, the selection procedure could be made more straightforward by organizing regular competitive selection processes and appointing successful candidates on the basis of their rating in that process. Competitive examinations conducted, at least partly, in a written and anonymous manner represent an important tool in the selection process.13 Mandatory training, including an internship in court, could be provided only to candidates who had been successful in the selection process. 4.

The Special Rapporteur stresses that the procedure followed for the selection and appointment of candidates to the national anti-corruption jurisdiction in 2016 represents a good practice that could be used in the future for the selection and appointment of all judges. The selection process was carried out in accordance with a selection protocol adopted by the judicial branch, which indicated the requirements that candidates had to meet and the modalities for setting up the commission for the selection of candidates. (...) According to some interlocutors, the elaboration of those rules represents a good practice that could be followed for future selection processes. Nevertheless, he notes with concern that that selection process fell short of international standards in several aspects. 59.

The Board established an Executive Director Selection Committee comprising six Board members (H.E. (...) Alexey Kvasov) to oversee the selection process for the Executive Director and make recommendations to the Board. (...) Adriana Soto.

The Special Rapporteur is concerned that the lack of appropriate selection criteria and procedures facilitates interference from political parties and economic groups in the selection process. 45. (...) Their appointment consists of two distinct phases: the “pre-selection” and the selection. The pre-selection aims at preparing the list of candidates that the National Council of the Judiciary is required to present to the Legislative Assembly. (...) The selection criteria for these posts are defined in the Constitution.

Selection, appointment and conditions of tenure of judges ............................ 35 – 44 9 D. (...) The procedures for the selection, appointment, transfer, removal, discipline and training of judges and prosecutors were largely in the hands of the executive. (...) Furthermore, any method of judicial selection should safeguard against judicial appointments for improper motives and against any type or grounds of discrimination.
