Abstract

Imami Jurisprudence, which sets the basis of the judiciary system in Iran, has a special approach towards the officiary of judges including their income for which there are specific regulations; for instance, their salaries are to be paid from the state treasury and well enough so that they need no one to manage a decent life and might not be influenced. However, it seems that not enough attention has been paid to the dignity of judges and its requirements, such as favorable income, welfare and psychological support. As a result, existence of these issues and resolving them are still one of the judges’ main concerns. Furthermore, one of the punitive policies adopted by the judiciary system to prevent the commitment of any crime by the judges is to publicize the guilty ones whose wrongdoings and misconducts, in fact, could be the result of the harm they are exposed to. Seemingly, this policy tends to present the system’s incisive attitude to oppose any crime even in its own system ignoring the necessity of resolving the roots of these issues. This article investigates the major shortcomings which affect the dignity of the judges in the judiciary system highlighting the responsibilities of those in charge to improve the status quo. Moreover, the significance of evolving an exalting system for judges and the necessity of developing an integrated procedure for disciplinary inquest instead of subjective inference are discussed.
