Description[?]:
| The "Judicial Review and Appointment Enhancement Act" seeks to refine the process of judicial review and appointment in the Apostolic High Kingdom of Endralon. The proposed changes aim to streamline the appeals process, focusing on substantial procedural errors, thus enhancing the overall efficiency of the judicial system. Additionally, the bill introduces a modification in the method of appointing judges and magistrates. While the current practice involves appointments by an independent commission, the bill proposes a shift towards appointments made directly by the head of state. These changes are intended to ensure swift and fair legal proceedings while maintaining the integrity of the judiciary. |
