The following day, Judicial Yuan President Hsu Tzong-li (許宗力) said that Chen’s action was destroying the rule of law. Even if a civil servant does not break the law, the Control Yuan can punish them for misconduct that could hurt people or society. The problem is that judicial personnel are civil servants and subject to supervision by the Control Yuan, according to the Constitution. As the Control Yuan supervises civil servants, judicial personnel are also included in its scope. However, as no one can interfere with a judge’s case, the Control Yuan can only investigate judges’ behavior, but not their cases.
