The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) ruled against six Romanian judges' claims for unpaid salaries, citing economic constraints. The court acknowledged the gradual payment approach due to budgetary challenges, emphasizing that authorities cannot refuse to execute court rulings solely due to financial limitations. ECHR noted that the judges' income levels were not significantly impacted by the staggered payments. Additionally, the court raised concerns about potential conflicts of interest when judges handle salary-related cases that may benefit them personally. It highlighted the need for clear separation between judicial responsibilities and budgetary decisions.
