In their petition filed in November, the magistrates and lawyers of Hauts-de-Seine they asked magistrate posts the additional expenses are attributed to the court of Nanterre. Faced with the “catastrophic situation” of the court, the latter invited the Registry to take into account the ” specificity » of their jurisdiction, which « is overwhelmed in particular by the litigation of the La Défense companies » and « cannot in fact be assimilated to an ordinary court ».
However, the Council of State held that, if «the administration does not dispute the excessive nature of art terms of judgment Tribunal of Nanterre”, “it is not up to the judge of the emergency instances of the Council of State to replace the assessment of the finance law as regards the determination of the total number of judicial magistrates active “.
“We see in this motivation signs of recognition of the dramatic situation in Nanterre,” he reacted to AFP President of Hauts-de-Seine, Isabelle Clanet dit Lamanit.
It seems to us that the reasons for the decision can be interpreted favorably because the judge recognizes that the excessive nature of the delays in the judgment is not disputed by the administration, as are the serious difficulties facing the judge. This decision seems to me to be usefully mobilized in the context of the appeal on the merits which was simultaneously filed before the Council of State ”, he added.
