The Judicial Selection Committee appoints seven new judges to family and traffic courts in the North and Haifa districts, the third round of judicial appointments since the government was formed in late 2022.
One judge and one registrar are appointed to the family courts, and two judges are appointed to the traffic courts in the Northern District.
Two judges and one registrar are appointed to the family courts, and two judges are appointed to the traffic courts in the Haifa district.
The nine-member committee also continues deliberations over appointments to the Jerusalem District Court but fails to come to a consensus for the second meeting in a row.
The committee did not hold deliberations on the two vacancies on the Supreme Court or on a permanent Supreme Court president.
