The fact that commercial courts in Istanbul operate dispersedly in different courthouses has been a matter of debate in judicial circles for a long time. The fact that the same case could be reopened in different courthouses with changes in address or title both increased the workload of the courts and damaged the unity of decision in commercial trials. The step to eliminate this situation was taken with the new regulation of the Ministry of Justice.

DISTRIBUTED STRUCTURE WAS CREATING PROBLEMS

There are a total of 44 Commercial Courts of First Instance in Istanbul, 22 in Çağlayan Courthouse, 8 in Bakırköy Courthouse, 13 in Istanbul Anatolian (Kartal) Courthouse and 1 in Küçükçekmece Courthouse. It is stated that since the courts are located in different courthouses, some companies can change their headquarters address or title in the trade registry and reopen the same case in another courthouse in order to prevent a decision against them. While the separate courthouses caused the files to not overlap exactly in the UYAP system, cases with the same content appeared to be new cases in the system.

MINISTER GÜRLEK ANNOUNCED THE PROJECT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE NEWS

Minister of Justice Akın Gürlek, in the program he attended on A Haber, made statements about the projects being worked on in order to carry out judicial services more effectively and quickly, and stated that gathering the Commercial Courts in a single building was one of these projects. Gürlek announced that the application would be launched in Istanbul as a pilot province.

COMMERCIAL COURTS WILL BE GATHERED UNDER ONE ROOF

Stating that Istanbul is a commercial city in A Haber Live broadcast, Gürlek said, “The world’s trade revolves here. Commercial courts are very important courts. We have very big cases here. We are planning to establish a pilot in Istanbul, I think of gathering all commercial courts in one place, in a single building. Now, what will be the benefit of this for us? There are commercial courts in Anadolu Courthouse, Çağlayan Courthouse, Bakırköy Courthouse, Küçükçekmece Courthouse. Many It is messy. Now the citizen cannot get a decision, he goes to the Anatolian Courthouse. All commercial courts will be in a complex, the location is unknown, and our commercial judges will work in these buildings separately from the courthouse. This will prevent the process from being prolonged, especially in commercial cases, and will provide uniformity. We are planning to launch this process as a pilot in Istanbul soon.”

THE DECISION WAS MADE BY HSK

After Minister Gürlek’s statements, the process gained momentum. After the meeting held by the General Assembly of the Council of Judges and Prosecutors, a decision was made to gather the Commercial Courts under a single building. Thus, the project moved from the decision stage to the implementation process.

LOCATION WILL BE DETERMINED IN ISTANBUL

In line with the decision taken, it was learned that work has been initiated to determine the building where the commercial courts will be located in Istanbul. After the location determination is completed, it is aimed to put the new structure into operation and to end the physical disorganization in commercial trials. Commercial courts are expected to be established in a region close to the financial center.

EMPHASIS ON THE NEW CONSTITUTION

Speaker of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey, Numan Kurtulmuş, gave the following messages in his speech at the meeting:

NO AMNESTY: While the report outlines the approach that stays away from topics that will create a perception of amnesty, focuses on the principle of certainty of the legal order and takes into account the sensitivity of the public conscience, it points out that when the democratic will that protects the state mind and the nation’s conscience takes action in the same integrity, it establishes a permanent basis for social peace. The Commission has prepared a report on its will to end terrorist acts and the climate of violence that harm social peace and tranquility.

THE COINSTONE OF THE STEPS: Our commission report is not an end; On the contrary, it is the cornerstone of the steps to be taken.

A HISTORICAL PERIOD: Today, we are going through a historical period regarding the issue of terrorism. In this process, our Gazi Parliament, which is the manifestation of the national will, has undertaken its duty without hesitation. The Turkish Grand National Assembly is the legitimate solution address for every issue.

THANKS TO ERDOĞAN AND BAHÇELİ

In their speeches, representatives of the ruling and opposition parties thanked President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and Devlet Bahçeli for initiating the process. Kurtulmuş also thanked Sırrı Süreyya Önder, who passed away in May last year.

THIS IS STATE AND NATIONAL POLICY

The opinions of the group representatives who spoke in the commission are as follows:

AK PARTY GROUP VICE CHAIRMAN ABDULHAMİT GÜL: This emerging report and this effort are a Turkish consensus, a Turkish consensus. It is a very unique model to be the manifesto of our brotherhood.

AK PARTY DEPUTY CHAIRMAN HÜSEYİN YAYMAN: Türkiye alliance and compromise has emerged. This is state and nation policy and we stand at the right place in history.

AK PARTY DEPUTY CHAIRMAN KÜRŞAD ZORLU: I believe that the legal regulations will be made in a way that will not hurt the conscience of the families of the martyrs.

MHP VICE PRESIDENT FETİ YILDIZ: Türkiye’s state structure, territorial integrity, the official language status of Turkish, and the principle of a secular republic are our common fundamental values ​​on which there will be no debate. The execution system needs to be fixed. Regulation on sick prisoners is among the first things the Parliament will do.

Four family-focused sessions were held at the Human Rights and Family Summit organized the previous day by the AK Party Human Rights Presidency. While attention was drawn to the decline in the fertility rate at the summit, it was emphasized that the family should be protected against digitalization and gender neutralization projects that are claimed to be carried out on a global scale. Speaking at the summit held at the AK Party Headquarters, Grand National Assembly of Turkey Justice Commission Chairman Cüneyt Yüksel described “de-gendering projects and LGBT impositions as dynamite thrown into the future of the Turkish nation.”

WE WILL PROTECT THE FAMILY WITH THE CONSTITUTION

Yüksel said, “We have to strengthen our legal fortifications on a wide range of issues, from anti-family disinformation in digital media to these harmful trends targeting our children.” Speaking after Yüksel, who touched upon the importance of designing anti-drug policies and measures against children dragged into crime with a family-centered approach, AK Party Deputy Chairman Belgin Uygur said, “We will protect the family institution against perverted trends with a civil, participatory constitution in the new era.

Our goal, our work and our efforts are in this direction. “We will put this issue at the center of our politics and policies,” he said. AK Party Hatay Deputy Abdulkadir Özel criticized the daytime programs and said, “There is a need for a more interventionist legal regulation that protects against harmful trends that especially target our children and youth.” Deputy Minister of Family and Social Services Sevim Sayım Madak said, “Last year, there were nearly 800 gender changes. Most of them turned from women to men. But when you reach the age of 25, you regret it,” he said. AK Party Bursa Deputy Osman Mesten stated that there is a change in the traditional family model and said, “Instead of having children, people buy cats and dogs. They are dressed in children’s clothes, taken for a ride in baby carriages, and bought toys. Mesten also argued that NGOs that appear to be human rights foundations but openly make LGBT propaganda should be closed. Mesten said, “It should be determined where institutions working under the name of animal rights and women’s rights receive support. Broadcasts to be broadcast on TV must be pre-inspected. What is not approved should not be published. “The penalty imposed after publication has no effect.” KADEM Board Member Sedide Akbulut emphasized justice within the family. Akbulut said, “Our religion does not recommend a hierarchical structure in the family. “It is necessary to share the responsibility fairly,” he said. Stating that the responsibility in divorces is often placed on women, Akbulut said, “However, the lack of responsibilities of the father is also one of the reasons. Policies that will strengthen the family are needed. “But with social policies that strengthen the family, we not only need to improve women’s employment, but also for men to share responsibility for the family and support their education,” he said.
