The judiciary, once a revered institution and a cornerstone of democracy, has been compromised by a clique of unscrupulous judges who prioritise personal enrichment over integrity and fairness. These judicial mercenaries, driven by self-interest, recklessly issue exparte orders, subverting the legal system and eroding public trust.
The compromised judiciary fails to uphold the law, creating a culture of lawlessness and chaos. The actions of these judicial mercenaries tarnish the reputation of the legal profession as a whole, discouraging honest and dedicated lawyers. The erosion of trust in the judiciary seeps into other institutions, leading to widespread societal and moral decay. The public’s faith in all institutions is shaken, leading to widespread cynicism and disillusionment.
This abuse of power also corrosively affects the legal profession, undermining the integrity and credibility of judges and lawyers. It creates a culture of fear and mistrust, where the powerful and connected are seen as above the law, and the vulnerable suffer at their mercy. The reckless use of exparte orders by judicial mercenaries is a scourge on the legal system, perpetuating injustice, eroding trust, and undermining the rule of law. The National Judicial Council must take decisive action to address this crisis, restore the judiciary’s integrity, and ensure justice is served.– US: Giordenello v. United States – The Supreme Court ruled that exparte orders violate due process, emphasizing the importance of notice and hearing in legal proceedings.
– South Africa: Minister of Justice v. Xaba – The Constitutional Court ruled that exparte orders must be issued cautiously and only in exceptional circumstances, emphasizing the importance of balancing individual rights with judicial discretion.
