Abstract

In this article, we will examine the methods of judging and the impact of those practices on the judicial independence of judges. This research has been conducted on Iran and two major representatives of the Commonwealth Law. We conclude that although the choice of federal judges in United States is a political process, it has no negative impact on their independent functioning due to their lifelong learning. We also find that conditions governing the choice of judges in Iranian law due the fact that people are looking to achieve the position and the position is not looking for them, has made it to follow the employment and employment relationship.
