Judges, judges, the independence of judges has long been a controversial issue. Recently, a case involving the prosecution and trial of veteran cadres has aroused widespread concern among the people. There is also an argument that our judges should be independent of other countries, but I don't think so. In my opinion, the independence of the judiciary will bring a catastrophe to the common people and threaten the lives of legal workers. Below, let's dig a little deeper into this.
The danger to the independence of the judiciary.
The judiciary is an important force in maintaining public order and an important cornerstone for the realization of justice. However, there are also phenomena of some judges abusing their powers and arbitrarily adjudicating cases, which has greatly undermined social justice and fairness. For example, Wang Hao's ruling against Peng Yu by the Nanjing Municipal Court ruled that he lost to his grandmother, is there any reason for such a ruling? Is this the judgment of a judge? In this context, the independence of the judiciary has become a pretext for allowing judges to act arbitrarily.
Improper adjudication.
Zhang Jiahui of the Hainan Court violated the law and interfered with the judiciary, which caused the lawyer to form a bad atmosphere in the first place. In such an environment, judicial officers have completely deviated from justice and integrity, abused their powers, and made the law a means for their personal interests. We doubt that the independence of the judiciary could really prevent such incidents. Can we better ensure justice through more regulation and management?
Independence and security of the judiciary.
Some local courts do not have uniform regulations on the acceptance of cases, which has brought great difficulties to the masses. For example, in a court in Jinshui District, Zhengzhou City, Henan Province, the efficiency of its work is worrying because a case has to be reviewed by four judges at the same time, and each case has a different basis for review. Under such circumstances, does the independence of the judicial organs mean that judges ignore the demands and rights of the people at the expense of their personal interests in the course of adjudication?
Personal safety of law enforcement officers.
In some specific circumstances, if you have to deal with crime, crime, and other related matters, will the independence of judges lead to professional tension and even endanger personal safety? Zhao Weidong, a judge in the Economic and Technological Development Zone of Langfang City, Hebei Province, lost the lawsuit because he was questioned by the public many times, and his account was forcibly banned. Under such circumstances, will the independence of the judiciary encourage judges to act arbitrarily and recklessly, ignoring the facts and the law, thus causing great harm to the fairness and justice of the entire society?
In short, it is necessary to seriously consider the independence of the judiciary. We must not only protect the personal and property of officials and law enforcers, but also pay attention to maintaining justice and social stability. We can promote the reform of China's judicial system step by step by improving the supervisory mechanism and strengthening education in the legal system, so as to ultimately achieve the goal of a society ruled by law. It not only embodies respect for the law, but also embodies the defense of justice and the sense of responsibility for social stability and harmony. It is hoped that the legal profession in Hong Kong will effectively play the role of guardians of fairness and justice in the process of striving for independence.
I hope that in the future, justice will be fairer, and law enforcement will be more courageous and orderly. Thank you for reading this article.
