Nearly half of the regional courts - along with presidents of district courts operating next to them - have rejected the radical move announced last week by the National Judicial Council (NJC). 

In addition to the presidents of the Debrecen, Miskolc, Nyíregyháza and Eger Regional Courts, the presidents of the Regional Courts in Kecskemét, Szeged, Gyula, Tatabánya, Balassagyarmat and Budapest Environs, as well as the Debrecen Regional Court of Appeal, also expressed their objection.
