The Legal Forum for the Land of Israel has called the appointment of Judge Michael Spitzer to the National Labor Court a blow to the public.
A forum statement said, "The fact that there is a heavy cloud over Judge Spitzer regarding his conduct as director of the courts and the murky labor relations between him and the National Committee of Legal Advocates and complaints of harm to their social conditions is a certificate of poverty. We can only hope that these facts will not reflect on the work and professionalism of Judge Spitzer."
