Removal of Head of State Based on Incapacity or Criminal Activities: Case Study Israel
The Law Library of Congress invites you to this month's entry in our Foreign and Comparative Law Webinar series on March 25 at 2:00pm EDT. This entry in the series will include an examination of the grounds and procedures for removal of heads of state based on incapacity or criminal activities in a number of countries. It will then address current Israeli law rules for temporary and for permanent removal of a PM. The webinar will examine ways to limit potential conflict of interest that may result from adjudicating a sitting PM, including proposals to delay criminal proceedings until they leave office.
The webinar will be presented by senior foreign law specialist Ruth Levush. Ruth holds a Master of Comparative Law (American Practice) from The George Washington University Law School and a Bachelor of Laws (LL.B) from Tel Aviv University Law School. Ruth practiced law in Israel and is a member of the District of Columbia Bar.
