Justice Minister Levin reaches agreement on appointing 15 new district judges

Justice Minister Yariv Levin has reached an agreement with the Judicial Appointments Committee and the Courts Administration to appoint 15 new district court judges. This development occurs despite previous clashes with the Supreme Court and warnings of a constitutional crisis. Associates of the minister claim this is a significant achievement, as the selected candidates align with his original demands, including a judge perceived as adversarial to the judicial system.
