– Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol decided not to attend the interrogation of the case of suspension of execution, which he filed for two months of suspension.
The 12th administrative division of the Seoul Administrative Court (Presiding Justice Hong Soon-wook) will open a date for interrogation on the suspension of enforcement of the enforcement of the disciplinary action filed against Minister of Justice Choo Mi-ae by Yoon at 2 pm on the 22nd.
Attorney Lee Wan-gyu on the side of President Yoon said on the day that “Today’s interrogation, Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol does not go, only lawyers go.” Previously, President Yoon did not attend the court’s interrogation on the 30th of last month, even when he filed an application for suspension of execution in disobedience to the order to suspend the duties of Justice Minister Chu Miae.
On this day, the court will review the positions of President Yoon and the Ministry of Justice and decide whether to suspend the effect of the two-month suspension.
In the court, it is expected that President Yoon and the Ministry of Justice will engage in sharp battles over whether’hard to recover damages’ from the two-month suspension of execution, the public welfare impact of the decision to suspend execution, and the legitimacy of the disciplinary procedure.
If Deputy Judge Hong, the presiding judge, cites Yoon’s request for suspension of execution, he will immediately return to work. In addition, he may continue to serve as president until the first trial decision on the cancellation suit. However, if the request for suspension of execution is not accepted, President Yoon will not be able to perform his duties until February 2021.
