ATTACHMENT | An action to facilitate a public hearing is taken.docx |
- The Supreme Court Regulations are amended, and the design of the grand bench is reformed.- [The Supreme Court Regulations were amended for oral arguments to be held in the form of topical discussion.] ¡Û Overview ¡Û Furthermore, the Court will extensively increase the number of public hearings.
¡Û Lecterns for attorneys were additionally installed in front of the attorney tables for both parties. In the past, lecterns were on the attorney tables, but now two adjustable lecterns are separately installed one meter ahead of the attorney tables in the direction of the bench. The distance between the bench and the lectern is approximately 3.9 meters, so Justices and attorneys can see facial expressions and converse with each other. ¡Û As an argument will proceed by issues and topics, it is expected that attorneys for both petitioners and respondents need to prepare their oral arguments with more scrutiny.
¡Û The artwork was originally displayed at the conference room on the 16th floor, the restricted area which requires security access for entrance, but it is now open to the public. As the Grand Courtroom is one of the Supreme Court tour spots, a person whoever visits the Grand Courtroom can appreciate the artwork. The Supreme Court shares an opportunity to appreciate the artworks in its possession with the people, and will replace artworks in a regular basis. ¡Û The Supreme Court is seeking for the ways how to provide the list and relevant materials of artworks which have been displayed at the Supreme Court to the public. |
