Mendelblit argued that most of the State Attorney's powers are drawn from the US Attorney's powers, but failed to point to one specifically delegated authority.

The Attorney General occupied the first floor outpost on the Salah a-Adin building for the second time last night and entered the State Attorney's office at full height. Immediately, Mandelblit rushed to send a letter to all the media, gladly declaring that he would bear the overall administrative and professional responsibility for the work of the State Attorney's Office, and that a management meeting would be held later this week.

Mandelblit bases the occupation of the State Attorney's office on the practice he invented three months earlier, and not on the provision of law or law.

On normal days, this dangerous move that gives one official all the powers of administration and execution of the law enforcement system, a move that is contrary to the law, would have passed in silence. But the days are not ordinary.

Justice Minister Amir Ohana immediately announced that the kidnapping carried out by the Attorney General was improper and appointed the Chief Justice of the Ministry of Justice as responsible for the prosecution.

Mandelblit immediately realized that the move he had failed to pass the agenda, so he sent a letter to the Civil Service Commissioner, which was immediately distributed to the press, late last night, trying to explain and convince him that this was an interim solution stemming from the State Attorney's powers, except for a limited number of powers. As for them, and therefore in the absence of the State Attorney, these powers automatically return to the Attorney General.

Mendelblit emphasized that this is by no means a matter of appointment to the Acting State Attorney by the Attorney General.

More on:

• Mandelblit is guilty of a low to which the law enforcement system reached

• Ohana to the Civil Service Commissioner: "Mandelblit cannot play the role of State Attorney"

• Mandelblit - also the State Attorney General

Counsel Mendelblit was asked to elaborate on them the same powers delegated to Shai Nitzan, the State Attorney who retired. The counselor failed to present a single authority.

All the counsel said was that his powers were detailed in hundreds of provisions of the law, many of them delegated to the State Attorney and many times delegated to other officials in the Attorney General's Office. To this end, the counselor presented examples of the Attorney General's activities. It can be found, for example, in the civil area where a law amending the Civil Procedures Law (the State as a Lawyer), 5758, states that "in any procedure to which the State is represented, the State will be represented by the Attorney General or its Attorney"; 12 of the Criminal Procedure Code [Combined Version], 1982, which clarifies that the State Attorney, his subordinate, the District Attorney, and other attorneys who sue defendants on behalf of the State, do so as the counsel's counsel.

To read and not to believe. All powers were broadly delegated to the counsel of the counsel or his counsel, as provided by law, but not to the state attorney alone.

The Attorney General wrote to the Civil Service Commissioner presenting him with a factual representation that was not really there. Mendelblit failed to point to a single authority that specifically delegated to the State Attorney, but was quick to present a statement that the State Attorney's powers are being extracted from the counsel of his counsel, and therefore, in the absence of the State Attorney, those powers are automatically returned to the Attorney General.

The attorney general did not explain how Dean did to himself and took over the prosecutor's office by declaring that he would bear the overall administrative and professional responsibility for the state's attorney's office, and even rushed to implement his statement at the summit of a board chaired this week.

The consultant's rule has also crossed the border this time, and this is another reason for good to do and vacate.
