The Superior Council of Magistracy (CSM) said the elimination of the service pensions of the magistrates "is a very serious matter that affects justice independence."
In this context, the Council "firmly" supports the legal action of the Joint Sections of the High Court of Cassation and Justice of notifying the Constitutional Court to verify the constitutionality of this law adopted by the Deputies Chamber, before its promulgation.
"In its turn, in supporting the steps taken by the High Court of Cassation and Justice, the Council will also send its legal opinion to the Constitutional Court, based on the intrinsic and extrinsic arguments regarding the unconstitutionality of the adopted normative act, arguments based on both the jurisprudence of the constitutional court and on international regulations in the field of the status of the magistrates and justice independence," mentioned CSM.
