Israel’s Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara has urged Justice Minister Yariv Levin to convene the Judicial Selection Committee on Sunday to appoint a new president for the Supreme Court, in compliance with a Supreme Court ruling.

In a letter sent this morning, Baharav-Miara emphasized that the committee is the appropriate body to address objections regarding the candidacy of the acting president of the Supreme Court Justice Yitzhak Amit, who is slated to assume the role. She noted that Minister Levin has the right to present any material he deems relevant to the committee for consideration.

The attorney general also expressed serious concerns over the minister’s actions, suggesting they may be aimed at avoiding compliance with the Supreme Court’s decisions.
