Appointment of Judges Needs To Be Transparent - LSB

This followed a resolution by the JSC to start using a new method of filling vacancies for judges, which does not include advertising for such.

LSB said it has always advocated for a transparent process of appointment of judges, which includes advertising the vacancies as they become available.   It said that, although the process was used to appoint High Court judges and magistrates, the same could not be said for appointment of justices to the Court of Appeal (CoA) bench.
