New judicial map; Lawyers request suspension until the deal of the new territorial map

The proposal was made by the head of the Chamber of Advocacy, Maksim Haxhia, who, among other things, requested that politics stay away from the issue.

“In order not to leave room for interpretations or accusations, we have been and will be in favor of the justice reform, but the judicial map is not the justice reform. It is supposed to be the creation of an infrastructure to help the efficiency of justice, so that we have a qualitative justice.

“We have made it clear that we represent the public, it is one of those cases when the interests of the chamber coincide with the interests of the citizens. We have a problem with justice being efficient with this map, because it is not”, said Haxhia, referring to the changes that significantly reduce the number of courts in Albania.

In the hearing with the lawyers, Minister of Justice Ulsi Manja expressed his determination to approve the new judicial map. He clarified the procedure followed, saying that the new judicial map will be passed to the Council of Ministers, as soon as the report of the Ministry of Finance on its costs arrives.

“The map is not a clear bolt from the sky. Suggestions were also received from the lawyers. The map today is a matter of law enforcement. As long as the law is in force, the minister has the obligation to support the new map of the judicial system courts”, said Manja, among other things.
