The Advocatory Committee coordinating the facts of implementation of double standards by the Court of Cassation waits for further developments. Gevorg Gyozalyan, a member of the committee, in the interview with our reporter assured that judicial reforms strategic plan 2012-2016 as well as personnel changes will improve the situation. He added that the problem is not the law, but its implementation. The issue is the individuals and double standards. The Government assured lawyers that all controversial objective and subjective factors would be taken into account.

Let us recall that a few months ago lawyers founded a committee which drew together the cases of implementation of double standards by the Court of Cassation.

G. Gyozalyan does not have great hopes that the court judges will get better and 'we will have a much more interesting Court of Cassation', that will function according to its constitutional status. 'A force is needed to impose them to change and that force is the President', said the lawyer.

Reactions coming from the Presidential residence, according to the attorney, are encouraging. He is optimistic and thinks that 'this is not the case when the words remain just only words'.

Gyozalyan remained that after their actions the voice of lawyers was heard by higher authorities, in particular in the Presidential residence. The President invited a meeting and it was the first time when the President of the Chamber of Advocates took part in it in that kind of format and the complaints of the lawyers were introduced to the President. Meetings were also held with members of the committee in different formats.

According to Gyozalyan, discussions on certain issues were generally considered satisfactory by the CA President.
