Judge (france)
Judges (French: magistrat du siège ) are civil servants in the French judicial organization ( fonctionnaires ; cf. ordonnance of December 22, 1958 and loi organique of February 20, 1967). They differ from the other civil servants primarily in their irreversibility (inamovibilité). The historically conditioned distrust of any form of excessive judicial power in France prevented the formation of an independent judiciary. The closeness to the executive is evident in the case of the administrative judges to an even greater extent: they are not even guaranteed irredeemability.
education
In France, the career aspiration to be a judge usually goes through a university degree that ends with a maîtrise . An assessor exam or legal clerkship is unknown in France. The training to become a judge takes place at the École nationale de la magistrature (ENM). Successful completion of the concours is a prerequisite for admission .
