Abstract

After the establishment of the constitutional system, justice has always had many shortcomings and defects in three dimensions of structure, laws and manpower, and this legacy has been transferred to the Pahlavi period. Ali Akbar Davar, in the early days of Reza Shah's reign, dissolved and reorganized the judiciary based on the authority he received from parliament, and one of the dimensions of his actions was the purge and extensive change of judges. About 25 years later, Mohammad Mossadegh reformed and innovated on the basis of the extensive authorities he received, in the face of corruption and inefficiency in the judiciary, and part of the scale of his actions was to purge and change the judges of the judiciary. The findings of this study represent that the main reasons for the formation of a large and rapid process of dismissal and change of judges were related to the obvious corruption and inefficiency in the judiciary, and the main goals of the judge and Mossadegh were to eliminate incompetent judges and replace competent persons.
