AG to new justice minister: It is a duty to obey court rulings
Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit responds to new Justice Minister Amir Ohana’s suggestion yesterday that the government is not bound by all High Court rulings.
In statement, Mandelblit says in Israel “the duty to obey court rulings is axiomatic, that serves as a guarantee for the protection of the rights of every citizen in the state.”
“This is not a possibility given to choice,” the attorney general adds. “This is a duty incumbent upon every citizen and every governmental authority, whichever it is.”
