The Superior Council of Magistracy revealed average salaries of Romanian judges amid discussions following a recent ECHR ruling. Judges in lower courts earn between 10,400 and 16,100 lei, while those in higher courts earn significantly more. The report highlights that entry-level judges earn 1.89 times the national average salary, below the EU average of 2.13. However, it omits data on salaries from the High Court of Cassation and Justice, where judges earn nearly six times the national average. Critics argue that essential salary information is missing, raising concerns about transparency in judicial compensation.
