The Armenian courts should not be formed as it is dome now, chairman
Helsinki Committee of Armenia Avetik Ishkhanyan considers.
"It is not very hard to find the mechanisms to divide the power and
make the courts independent", de says. Should the courts be elected? It
is not a necessary condition for an independent juridical power. There
are many states where the courts are independent though they were not
elected. Avetik Ishkhanyan is not against if the judges were elected
by the President under the condition that he should not possess
super-authority of the executive power. According to Ishkhanyan there
exist other mechanisms providing for the independence of the courts,
for example their welfare.
The Constitution should first of all provide for the independence of
a judge and fix the authority courts are empowered with. The rest can
be settled with a law. The most important thing is that the Justice
Council should not be guided by the executive power but should be a
self-regulating body.
