This is a problem in terms of independence. The reconstruction of a court must take precedence over the Presidential Palace !" regretting that the chief of the government [René Preval] slow to appoint the President of the Court of Cassation, a senior judge who is also chairman of the Higher Judicial Council (Conseil supérieur du pouvoir judiciaire CSPJ) and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the EMA.
