"Aghvan-like behaviour", President of Armenia’s Chamber of Advocates
Ruben Sahakian said about Armenian judges’ posture.
Recently, Judge Mnatsakan Martirosian took a disciplinary proceedings
against advocates Liparit Simonian, Melania Arustamian, Hovik Arsenian,
Stepan Voskanian and Varduhy Elbakian. Ruben Sahakian considers
Mnatsakan Martirosian’s step as an "arbitrary rule."
The Advocates’ Chamber is going to dismiss the proceedings against
the advocates.
Remind that on March 17 Mnatsakan Martirosian decided to apply to
the Chamber to take a disciplinary proceedings against the advocates.
The Chamber of Advocates plans to appeal to the Council of Justice
to institute a disciplinary proceedings against the judge of Kentron
and Nork-Marash District Court Mnatasakan Martirosian though Ruben
Sahakian is sure no proceedings will be taken against the judge.
The Chamber also plans to set up a quick response group. The group will
render assistance to advocates who have been subjected to arbitrary
treatment by judges.
