Please note, public interviews to select candidates for appointment as Judges of the Constitutional Court which were set for the 7th and 8th of September have been postponed to the 28th and 29th of September 2020. #publicinterviews #ConCourt #JudicialServiceCommission

Our respectful view is that ZWLA’s criticism of the JSC for nominations done by the public is misplaced because the JSC does not make any nominations but manages the nomination process.

As ZWLA you are aware that the Judges’ appointment process is done in terms of section 180 of the Constitution. The nomination of candidates to be considered for appointment is done by the public and the President. The responsibility of the JSC is to call for nominations. This obligation was duly complied with when the call was made from 31 May 2020 and remained valid until 30 June 2020.

During the nomination period, we expected the public, including organisations like ZWLA, to nominate persons to be considered for appointment. At the close of the nomination period, we received twelve valid nominations composed of ten male and two female candidates.

We continue to urge the public and all our stakeholders to maintain social distancing, frequently sanitise hands and follow all Covid19 regulations at home and in using the courts. Promoting access to justice during this pandemic is an effort that demands all hands on deck. #socialDistance #staySafe #playyourpart #protectyourself #Covid19

Following concerns raised by litigants and legal practitioners on the availability and publication of judgments that would have been read in court, the Chief Justice, after consulting and engaging with Judges, issued the Memorandum below.

The Memorandum is meant to guide Courts and Judges on the need to pronounce judgments only when they are ready, and to avail judgments to the public immediately after such pronouncement.

“Malawi Crt actually approved Zim cases: 1 Tsvangirai decision showing substantial compliance with law suffices 2 Chamisa showing burden of proof is on petitioner Crt then quotes Chamisa and contradicts itself arguing it is full, and not substantial compliance, which is required”
