(1)Conflict of interest is growing as more and more high court judges move to large law firms immediately after retirement This is because the high court’s chief judge system has been eliminated since February 2021, and the ransom of high court judges has soared, but they are free from employment restrictions
(2)According to the JoongAng Ilbo’s analysis of the list of retired high court judges, including those who are expected to retire on 19 days for seven years since 2018, 73252 out of a total of 71 retirees were found to have been employed by the so-called teenage large law firms after they took off their legal uniforms. In particular, a survey of the list of judges from December 7, 2023 to February 7, 2024, excluding five judges in charge of administrative affairs who are scheduled to retire from the regular appointment of judges in the Seoul High Court on the 19th, showed that many cases were also included in which law firms who are expected to join the company defended themselves
(3)Legal experts point out that he is actually a senior judge at the district court in conflict of interest because it is a case of not avoiding the hearing in the process of negotiating employment with a law firm
(4)Judge A ruled in favor of the defendant of the National Labor Relations Commission, who was defended by a large law firm that was scheduled to work in a lawsuit to cancel a retrial of unfair dismissal relief he presided over on December 21 last year In recognition of the judgment of the lower court, the plaintiff’s appeal was dismissed
(5)A lawyer who asked not to be named said, “In the past, it was customary to delay the sentence of a case involving a law firm that was negotiating a job and hand it over to the next court.” In addition, Judge A sentenced three cases in which the law firm defended in the last two months and conducted another three hearings Judge B, who was confirmed to join the same law firm, also heard two related law firm cases as a referee during the same period
(6)Judges who were about to join another large law firm had similar patterns. Judge C heard or sentenced the law firm to six cases in which it came as a lawyer, five cases in D, and two cases in E, respectively
(7)High court judges, who usually wish to retire, negotiate the terms of joining the company by knocking on the door of a large law firm months before regular personnel appointments in February every year In the meantime, the court, which was assigned a case related to the law firm, was conducting a hearing sentence at the same time. The possibility of a conflict of interest is greater if you randomly joined a company with multiple large law firms rather than a specific law firm. As the high court attracts large cases, one of the three cases allocated to the court is that there are large law firms
(8)A lawyer at a large law firm said, “Judges used to write their resignations first due to conflicts of interest, but now they have to secretly seek to go to a law firm from the summer and resign at the end of the year if they are decided.” He added, “Some of the judges who did not write their resignations at the time of the appointment did not do so.”
(9)High court judges can go to large law firms immediately after retirement because they are not subject to employment restrictions under the Public Service Ethics Act The current Public Service Ethics Act restricts employment for three years, considering that only judges of the high court’s chief judge level or higher are closely related to the work of law firms and others for five years before retirement
(10)”After the abolition of the high court’s chief judge, the high court has effectively become a free zone for employment regulations,” a judge at the financial district court said. “As the high court judge has effectively succeeded to the position of the chief judge, it is time to start discussing the introduction of employment regulations accordingly.” Another judge also pointed out, “In the case of Rockluck, a judge who helps judge’s work, when the personnel season comes, the court at all levels has no guidelines to exclude Rockluck, who is appointed to a law firm, from trial research work,” adding, “It is ironic that there are no restrictions on judges who actually sentence the ruling while regulating Rockluck.”
(11)In response, a source at the Supreme Court said, “It is necessary to determine whether individual judges’ hearings and sentencing took place during the actual personnel negotiations, but we regret that it is seen as a conflict of interest.” “We still have ethics recommendations from retired judges at the Supreme Court level.” However, he said that introducing more restrictions on employment than that would be difficult to bring up if the court comes out

(1)In modern society, where judges’ common sense is not even close to ordinary people, the authority of the legal 庭 will be made of black clothes and a solemn atmosphere
