Evaluation of Supreme Court justices, under the shadow of resignations

Four judges of the Supreme Court of Justice in the Dominican Republic, including its president, have resigned rather than submit to an evaluation by the National Council of the Magistracy (CNM). The development places renewed scrutiny on the evaluation procedure used by the CNM.

While the evaluation process features established rules and parameters, the recent resignations highlight ongoing controversies and criticisms surrounding the procedure's execution and oversight.
