The Constitution Of Islamic Republic Of Pakistan QUESTION #9389
Question 1
Under Article 175C(2), a person is qualified to be appointed as a Judge of the Federal Constitutional Court if they have been an advocate of a High Court and advocate of the Supreme Court for not less than:
  • Fifteen years
  • Eighteen years
  • Twenty years✔️
  • Ten years
Correct Answer Explanation
Article 175C(2)(c) provides that a person qualifies as an FCC Judge if they have 'for a period of not less than twenty years, been an advocate of a High Court and is an advocate of the Supreme Court.' This is stricter than the Supreme Court's 15-year High Court advocate requirement under Article 177(2)(b).
