Tbilisi. The Coalition for an Independent and Transparent Judiciary calls on the President to change his decision of refusing to nominate a candidate for chief Justice position.

"The Coalition is sharply critical of the President’s decision not to exercise his Constitutional authority and instead shift responsibility to various public groups. Unfortunately, the President has to this time failed to set a format of civil society engagement in the nomination process, and without this we cannot consider the President’s decision as motivated”, - marks the Coalition, - "We call on the President of Georgia to consider the grave circumstances of the Georgian judiciary to execute his Constitutional authority timely and effectively and ensure nomination of a candidate, who would enjoy a wide public support”.
