The independence of the judiciary conferred at constitutional level entails a huge social responsibility for those who achieve it and the moral obligation of unity of the magistrates' professional body in order to guarantee this fundamental value, for the protection of all citizens in the face of any form of arbitrariness," Lia Savonea mentioned, according to the message conveyed on the occasion of "Justice Day" posted on the CSM website.

I would like to congratulate all magistrates who have carried out and carry out their work with honor and conscience, having as motivation of their professional conduct the full respect of the law, of the litigants and of the fundamental values of the democratic society. I also express my respect and appreciation for the contribution brought by all law professionals with the goal of accomplishing the act of justice, firmly convinced that only together will we be able to maintain an independent justice, based on trust and respect, indispensable values in stressful times," Lia Savonea mentioned.
