"Justice goes faster, works better and is closer to the French," said the Minister of Justice, Eric Dupond-Moretti, on Thursday, defending "tooth and nail" the record of local justice launched there. a year.

“We have reopened places where justice no longer had course”, welcomed Dupond-Moretti to our colleagues from France Info.

In terms of resources for justice and the hiring of magistrates "no one has ever done that before us", he said.

“Do you think that a snap of your fingers is enough to solve all the problems?

“Insisted Eric Dupond-Moretti while the National Conference of Presidents of Judicial Courts has just indicated that there is” an imperative need to create 1,500 magistrate positions “under penalty of seeing the judgment times lengthen.

A complaint filed by the magistrates' unions

The two main magistrates' unions have also filed a complaint against France with the European Commission to denounce the "permanent violation" of the rules on working time in their profession.

“The magistrates' unions can say a certain number of things, they are in their role, it is very legitimate.

And then we are in the presidential campaign, look at the figures proposed by the candidates, they are well beyond what the magistrates themselves propose.

You have to be serious, ”commented Dupond-Moretti.

The Minister also defended his chief of staff Véronique Malbec appointed to the Constitutional Council by the President of the National Assembly Richard Ferrand.

Ex-prosecutor general of Rennes, Véronique Malbec was the hierarchical manager of the prosecutor who dismissed in October 2017 the Mutuelles de Bretagne case in which Richard Ferrand was implicated.

This appointment has made people cringe even if an attorney general cannot give an instruction in the direction of dismissing a complaint.

"It's offensive for Véronique Malbec" to doubt her probity and her integrity, Dupond-Moretti got carried away.

“Véronique Malbec is a great magistrate, she is a great professional,” he said.

“Dirting the honor of Véronique Malbec is absolutely disgusting,” he concluded.
