After swearing in 17 promoted and transferred judges in several of the country's jurisdictions, the president of the Supreme Court called on magistrates to defend the independence of the Judicial Branch.
Jorge Subero Isa warned that under no circumstance would there be mass firings or pay cuts for judges and officials, as ordered recently by the Attorney General's office.
The judges who were promoted were Pilar Rufino Diaz to the presidency of the Fourth Collegiate Tribunal, as were Ingrid Fernandez and Daniel Julio Nolasco, taken from the Ninth Room of the Penal Chamber. Magistrate Mariana Garcia Castillo was brought from Montecristi for the latter court.
