Israel's High Court of Justice ruled that Justice Minister Yariv Levin must cooperate with Supreme Court President Yitzhak Amit, rejecting Levin's claims that Amit's appointment was invalid. The court attributed the procedural irregularities Levin cited to his own failures to perform required actions. The ruling did not specify enforcement mechanisms but left the door open for future petitions if Levin fails to comply.
