France’s magistrates are angry. Example in Thionville, which joined the national mobilization. This Tuesday, November 22, one year after the publication of a forum, called 3,000, denouncing a suffering profession, several magistrates of the North Moselle jurisdiction deplore “the unbearable dilemma with which justice professionals are confronted every day: “Judging quickly but badly, or to judge well in unacceptable delays”. And it should be underlined: “Announcements and communications have followed since the press conference in December 2021, and our Minister of Justice is now trying to instill the idea that he has finally “given justice to means to work”
Recruitments are scheduled for 2023, but “they are largely insufficient and a clear action plan has not been defined as required by the urgency of the situation. We ask for the adaptation of the courts’ activity to the personnel available to them and for compliance with labor legislation. To show their determination “to denounce justice at a discount”, the Thionvillois magistrates returned some of the afternoon files, with the exception of those concerning the litigants absent from the trial.
