The Judicial Service Commission did not near finality on the matter on Friday and the matter was postponed to the next available date

on Friday and will continue these on July 30, spokesperson advocate Dali Mpofu said.

The JSC is weighing a recommendation by the Judicial Conduct Tribunal that Hlophe be impeached for gross misconduct for approaching constitutional court justices Bess Nkabinde and Chris Jafta in 2008 on litigation relating to the arms deal case against French multinational Thales and Jacob Zuma. The tribunal found that Hlophe had violated the constitution by attempting to influence judges to betray their oath of office, while flouting the principle that bars judges from broaching a pending matter with those seized with it.He has made written representations to that effect to the JSC, which similarly received a submission from the constitutional court as the complainant in the matter.
