During the administration of Aedan Escrow in the 1980s, a considerable focus was placed on criminal justice reform - Escrow's focus was on removing partisan influence from the courts, bucking a trend many good government groups viewed as a "concerning, creeping" development since the 1950s. In [[1989]], the [[Concilium Daoni]] under the leadership of [[Michael Redder]] passed the "Judicial Appointment and Term Act", which removed the partisan appointment to each level of the court by the respective Governor or the [[Procurator]]. The new act created an appointment process which required the judges from higher levels to appoint qualified candidates for the lower courts, and for a non-partisan commission to select the initial group of "non-partisan" judges beginning for the term 1990. | |||
