Chisinau, 20 September /MOLDPRES/-Constitutional judges declared inadmissible the appeal filed by the Superior Council of Magistracy on declaration as unconstitutional of the law that involves raising the retirement age for judges, starting on 1 July 2021.
Based on the examination of the notification submitted by the Superior Council of Magistracy, the judges of the Constitutional Court found today that the notification is inadmissible and cannot be accepted for substantive examination.
„It is declared inadmissible the notification regarding the control of the constitutionality of the provisions of article 32 of Law no. 544 of July 20, 1995 regarding the status of the judge (in the wording of Law no. 222 of December 4, 2020), submitted by the Superior Council of Magistracy ”, the decision of the Constitutional Court reads.
