The programme of the second day of the seminar was common to all Judges, with Mr Vlahopoulos first presenting the module on "Annulment and Substantive Disputes: The scope of review and the consequences of the decision" followed by the module on "Preparation and structure of judicial decisions - Judicial reasoning". At the end of each module, there followed a discussion and exchange of views between the participants and the three speakers.
The Director of the School of Magistrates, Mr George Erotokritou, addressed the opening of the seminar and expressed special thanks to the three speakers, since they willingly took on the entire burden of the seminar, despite the difficulties that had arisen during its planning.
The seminar is part of the regular training of Judges with the ultimate aim of expediting justice and is part of the Judicial School's funding from the Recovery and Resilience Plan.
