Missing Chapters on Legal Profession Organization
The article discusses the crisis surrounding the regulation of the legal profession in Morocco. Legal expert Abdel Kabir Tabiḥ pointed out that a new draft law threatens the independence of the profession and reflects the government's retreat from previous agreements with the lawyers' associations, particularly through the sharing of authority between the Ministry of Justice and the lawyers. He explained that the new draft endangers the fundamental principles of identity, independence, and immunity, restricts the role of the Bar Association president, and transforms the lawyer from an independent element into a subordinate party. This threatens the core of justice and the overall independence of the judiciary. He also emphasized that the legal immunity protection must remain preserved, as any encroachment upon it jeopardizes the rights of defense. He highlighted that lawyers are still guarantors of citizens' rights and play a vital role in building a state of justice and law. Finally, he noted that the Constitutional Court will decide on the compatibility of the draft law with the constitution, with hope that the profession's independence will be protected, as it is essential to guaranteeing the rights of litigants and ensuring the stability of the justice system.
