President Nicusor Dan criticized the current legislation on Wednesday, calling it "utterly absurd" that a magistrate's pension could equal their full salary upon retirement.
The president announced on Wednesday that he has received 76 retirement requests from magistrates. Of these, two have withdrawn their applications, while in two other cases, specialists advised that the decisions were likely influenced by the recent "onslaught of information." In light of this, the president expressed his openness to meet personally with those affected.
Nicusor Dan also confirmed that the review of all retirement requests has been finalized, and the official decrees will be issued on Friday afternoon.
"Magistrates who have reconsidered their decision can still reach out to me by Friday," he said.
Commenting on the current legal framework, the president criticized it for encouraging premature departures from the judiciary.
"We have lost the quality of the judicial process. Nothing can substitute the experience these individuals bring," he emphasized.
The president also expressed his respect for the magistrates who choose to stay, despite being encouraged to leave.
