The Judicial Selection Committee announced the promotion and appointment of some 50 judges across district and magistrate courts nationwide, according to reports. Judge Menachem Mizrahi was among those selected for a district court post.
The Judicial Selection Committee announced a new round of judicial appointments on Sunday evening, approving the promotion of about 50 judges to district and magistrate courts across the country, according to reports from N12. Judge Menachem Mizrahi was selected for a district court position. The appointments follow a broader agreement reached earlier this evening on lower-court judicial appointments, breaking a months-long deadlock — though that earlier deal did not include Supreme Court appointments, and Mizrahi's promotion appears to be part of this second wave. As The Zioneer reported earlier Sunday, the committee's initial agreement covered magistrates, juvenile, traffic, and family court judges, with Mizrahi's elevation now adding a notable district-level appointment. The exact list of promoted judges and their assigned courts has not yet been published in full.
