Two judges from the Court of Appeal have filed their applications for the Supreme Council of the Judiciary at the Supreme Court, two days before the deadline expires.

The Commission that admits the applications gave no details about their identities, but we know that one of them works at the Shkodra Court of Appeal.

The names of the candidates could be made public by September 6th.

The Commission will check if the candidates are eligible and then they will have to go through the vetting process, before competing for becoming members of the Supreme Council of the Judiciary.

The Supreme Council is a very important new institution that comes with the much-awaited judicial reform and vetting process. Delays with the establishment of these institutions have paralyzed many important courts and significant reforms that also impact Albania’s EU integration path, such as the start of the accession negotiations.
