Constitutional Court rules that Bures must resign as Supreme Court deputy chairman

The Constitutional court ruled on Wednesday that Jaroslav Bures, deputy chairman of the Supreme Court, was to leave his post. Bures was appointed to the post by President Vaclav Klaus, but the appointment was not counter-signed by the Chairwoman of the Supreme Court Iva Brozova, who said she did not consider Bures a suitable candidate. She took the matter to court and won her case against the president.
