[Asia Economy Reporter Baek Kyunghwan] The disciplinary committee for prosecutors regarding Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol will be held on the morning of the 10th.


According to the legal community on the 7th, the Ministry of Justice notified Yoon's side that the disciplinary committee will be held from 10:30 AM on the 10th. Originally, Yoon's disciplinary committee was scheduled for the 2nd, but it was postponed to the 4th at Yoon's request and then postponed again to the 10th.


Meanwhile, Minister of Justice Choo Mi-ae has filed an immediate appeal against the court's decision to suspend the effect of Yoon's suspension from duty. An immediate appeal is a procedure to appeal to a higher court against a court's decision, which must be submitted to the original court within seven days.



At 2 PM, Yoon's side submitted additional written materials to the Constitutional Court regarding the constitutional complaint and provisional injunction application. On the 4th, Yoon's side applied for a constitutional complaint and a provisional injunction to suspend the effect, arguing that the Prosecutors' Disciplinary Act, which allows the Minister of Justice to request a disciplinary committee for the Prosecutor General and appoint disciplinary committee members, violates the Constitution. This day, additional written materials were submitted to the Constitutional Court regarding this matter.
