Justice minister: Supreme Court in terrible state
None
Addressing calls to appoint a Sephardic judge to the High Court of Justice, Justice Minister Yaakov Ne'eman said "only the best (candidates) should be appointed," adding that he was staunchly opposed to appointing a Sephardic judge based solely on his or her descent.
Ne'eman went on to say that the Supreme Court was in a "terrible state," adding "there are (numerous) cases which cannot be heard because there are not enough panels (of judges). The public suffers from this." (Moran Azulay)
