Sven Rebehn

Sven Rebehn is the Federal Managing Director of the German Judges' Association (Deutscher Richterbund), where he has been a prominent advocate for judicial reform in Germany. His recent statements highlight critical shortages in the judiciary, specifically noting a deficit of over 2000 judges and prosecutors, which has contributed to a backlog of nearly one million unresolved cases. Rebehn emphasizes the need for immediate action to alleviate these pressures and improve the efficiency of the criminal justice system, which has been struggling to keep pace with rising demands.
