  • Report of the Judges of the Court on Managing Transitions in the Judiciary
    30 January 2020 Report of the judges of the Court on Managing Transitions in the Judiciary I. Introduction 1. “Transitions”, for purposes of this memorandum, means the process of bringing the service of judges to a close upon the statutory end of their term; as the replacement judges commence their service. 2. A key challenge in the management of transitions in the judiciary is that posed by the end of mandate of one-third of the Court’s judges every three years. This necessitates proper management of the circumstances resulting in the continuation in office of a judge who remains at the Court to complete a trial or appeal in accordance with article 36(10) of the Rome Statute, even though her or his mandate has expired.1 To date, 10 judges have had extensions of mandate under this provision, the duration of which has ranged from several months2 to several years (i.e. between approximately 1.5 – 4 years).3 The present report focuses on this issue. It is an issue the current Presidency has taken up on its own to try and resolve – long before its resonance in aspects of the Draft Non-Paper produced by the Bureau of the ASP. By way of the latter, States Parties have identified the possible need to ‘[d]evelop and implement clear and firm procedures for managing transitions in the judiciary, such as the use of alternate judges, handover strategies etc’.4 1 Article 36(10) provides: ‘Notwithstanding paragraph 9, a judge assigned to a Trial or Appeals Chamber in accordance with article 39 shall continue in office to complete any trial or appeal the hearing of which has already commenced before that Chamber’.
