**Supreme Court Judge Levan Mikaberidze Elected to High Council of Justice**
A conference of judges has taken place, resulting in the election of Supreme Court judge Levan Mikaberidze as a new member of the High Council of Justice. The announcement was made by Judge Levan Murusidze, who also serves on the Court of Appeal and is a current member of the High Council.
According to Judge Murusidze, the conference voted unanimously in favor of Judge Mikaberidze’s election, with 290 votes and no objections. This decision came about after Judge Rezo Nadaraia left his position on the High Council of Justice to take up the role of Chairman of the Constitutional Court.
**A New Member Takes Office**
The vacancy on the High Council of Justice was created when Judge Rezo Nadaraia moved to the Constitutional Court, a position he was nominated for by the Plenum of the Supreme Court. As per the law, a conference of judges was convened to elect a new member to take his place.
Judge Murusidze noted that the decision to move to the Constitutional Court is a significant one, and Rezo Nadaraia must have felt it was an honor worthy of his skills and experience. “Being a judge of the Constitutional Court is a very honorable position,” he said. The Plenum of the Supreme Court had nominated Judge Nadaraia for this role.
**What’s Next?**
With Levan Mikaberidze now a member of the High Council of Justice, we can expect him to play an important role in shaping the country’s judicial system. His experience as a Supreme Court judge will undoubtedly serve him well in his new position.
The election of Judge Mikaberidze has been widely reported in Georgia, and it will be interesting to see how he contributes to the High Council’s decision-making process. As always, we’ll be keeping a close eye on developments.
