In this post, we shine a spotlight on an important transnational phenomenon that has thus far received very limited scholarly attention: when judges stay in office past their original mandate. We call this “judicial overstay”. We sincerely believe that this phenomenon should be studied in more detail as it is potentially as dangerous as court-packing, but may at the same time be a pragmatic solution that serves noble purposes such as providing timely justice and preventing dysfunction in the judiciary. These two faces of judicial overstay make the analysis of this phenomenon very complex and context dependent. Our aim is thus to start the debate, not to provide any concrete answers at this stage.
