All 15 justices on the High Court will hear the petitions against the “reasonableness law,” legislation passed by the coalition last week that limits judicial review of governmental decisions.

It will be the first time in the court’s history that all 15 justices will preside over a hearing.

The hearing is slated for 10 a.m. on September 12.

At least seven petitions against the legislation have been filed, including by the Movement for Quality Government in Israel.
