YEREVAN, July 27. /ARKA/. The first stage pf reforms in Armenia’s
judicial system will replenish Armenia’s judicial manpower with
20-25 judges, RA Minister of Justice David Harutyunyan told a press
conference.

He reported that the reason for the increase in Armenia’s judicial
manpower is the increase in the number of courts. Specifically, besides
common law courts Armenia will have courts of limited jurisdiction –
criminal courts, civil courts, courts for bankruptcy cases.

The Minister noted that similar reforms in other countries’ judicial
systems caused a 2.5-6-time increase in the number of judges.

Armenia’s judicial system currently has common law courts (minor
courts), the Criminal and Military Court of Appeal, Civil Court of
Appeal and Cassation Court of Armenia.

According to the Ministry of Justice, a total of 180 judges currently
work in Armenia. P.T. -0–

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
