Mattarella, a youth robes: “do Not ever lose hold of the sense of limit” – The Republic

the President of The Republic Sergio Mattarella ROME – “I, Too, played the role of a constitutional court judge and I had no way of ascertaining the value of the confrontation and dialectic. And yet in those years I too felt the tension of having to make justice. Don’t be overwhelmed by anything if not by the application of the law. Even by that subtle sense of solemnity that arises from this context in which we ope rate. We must not ever lose hold of the sense of his own limitations, particularly institutional ones”. So, boom, the President of the Republic, Sergio Mattarella, at the Quirinale palace for the ceremony with the 610 in the ordinary courts in the placement, in the presence of the vice-president of the Csm, Giovanni Legnini and the minister of Justice Andrea Orlando.

Mattarella, speaking to the youth robes, pointed out that it is “an exhortation that I address first of all to myself because in this show, so solemn the whole expresses a sense of authority and, working in this environment, we must not ever lose hold of the sense of their own limitations, particularly institutional ones. In the course of your career every so often, if you can, try to remember this, my humble tip”.

“The judges have a very important task,” said the head of State, recalling her experience as a constitutional judge, “I appreciated greatly the great, the fundamental utility of the comparison of points of view and the dialectic of opinions: does lead to an enrichment in the progressive”.

The President explains that “the balance in the exercise of the judicial function consists in the know avoid the double risk applications to mechanistic rules or readings arbitrarily ‘creative’ of the same”. The balance, reasonableness, measure, discretion are virtues that, like the professional training, must guide the act of the magistrate in his every decision. A critical spirit toward their own positions and the ‘art of doubt’, the utility of doubt, support is always a right decision – says Mattarella – the result of a conscious balance between the different values protected by the Constitution.”

The judiciary, in our recent history, they are still his words, “has been shown to have all the tools to ensure the recognition of rights, without reservation. It is good that it is increasingly proud of its irreplaceable function, but also aware of the great responsibility that weighs on his action”. Justice, detects the head of the State, “is a fundamental resource, even more so for a Country integrated in the international community. It is a service that helps to ensure the orderly development of civil and social”. According to Mattarella, precisely in order to ensure the more effective protection of the rights “to the magistrate, is guaranteed autonomy and independence in its decisions that, to be credible, must be supported by a solid preparation, the fruit of a diligent and professional”.

In this way, he concludes, “avoiding the risk of will protect to the best of the autonomy and independence of the judiciary.”
