The National Office for the Judiciary is not a statutory representative of the legal person courts, therefore it may only represent a court upon authorisation to that effect. The statutory representative of a legal person court is the president of the given court. The president of a court is entitled to decide whether he, in his powers, wishes to arrange for the representation of his court in case this court as a party to a lawsuit, or wishes to authorise the National Office for the Judiciary to represent the court at issue.
