Saada: Next Election Could Reshape Israel’s Courts for a Generation Likud MK Moshe Saada says the next election will effectively be a referendum on the future of Israel’s judiciary. The next government could take part in appointing as many as 10 Supreme Court justices, alongside other senior legal officials. Why it matters: Supreme Court justices can serve until age 70, meaning appointments made by the next government could shape major court decisions for many years. “This isn’t a change for one term. It’s a generational change,” Saada said.
