The Supreme Court dismissed Robert M.'s appeal against the National Council of the Judiciary's refusal to nominate him for a higher judicial post. The Council cited a 2007 disciplinary finding of misconduct where no penalty was imposed, arguing this fact was relevant among many circumstances for the appointment decision. The Court ruled that the Council correctly considered the misconduct as a negative circumstance without needing to apply specific sanctions or link it to career restrictions.
