The National Council of the Magistracy, the government body in charge of choosing the Supreme Court of Justice judges, will be meeting on Tuesday, 12 March 2019 at 4pm. On the agenda is the recusal of Attorney General Jean Alain Rodríguez in the assessment of judge Miriam Germán Brito. Rodríguez is accused of blatant violation of the assessment rules in the case of Germán Brito. Rodríguez presented anonymous letters as evidence of corruption. The “evidence” became fake news, nevertheless, when journalists investigated. The meeting will be behind closed doors.
