Cape town: The Judicial Service Commission (JSC) has announced the names of five candidates it will recommend to President Cyril Ramaphosa to fill two vacancies at the Constitutional Court. This follows interviews conducted by the commission this week to fill vacancies at various courts across the country.
According to South African Government News Agency, the five recommended candidates for the Constitutional Court are Judge Nambitha Dambuza, Advocate Alan Dodson SC, Judge Glenn Goosen, Judge Katharine Savage, and Judge Ashton Schippers. The JSC also interviewed six candidates for the vacancy at the Supreme Court of Appeal. However, the commission announced on social media platform X that it had ‘decided that it will not recommend any candidate for appointment’ at that court.
Proceedings continue this morning with interviews for the vacant positions in the KwaZulu-Natal Division of the High Court.
