Judges

1. Jurisdiction lies exclusively with the judges installed in accordance with the law.

2. In performing their functions, judges are independent and owe obedience only to the Constitution, the law and to their own conscience.

3. Judges have security of tenure and, unless otherwise provided for by law, may not be transferred, suspended, retired or removed from office.

4. To guarantee their independence, judges may not be held liable for their judgments and decisions, except in the circumstances provided for by law.

5. The law shall regulate the judicial organisation and the status of the judges of the courts of law.
