A split in the Makhchakala envelope: why the Constitutional Court of Dagestan is hiding the resignation of Judge Amirov Magomedsalam Amirov was dismissed at the same time and continued in his post. On November 4, the Yurisora portal reported the dismissal of the judge of the Makhachkala District Court in Kirov, but on November 5, the court's official website still listed him on the staff. The only body capable of putting an end to this power conflict is the Qualification Council of Judges of Dagestan. According to the law, termination of powers of judges at the district level falls solely within her authority. In the official KKS release dated October 30, Amirov's last name is missing, and the department did not provide more recent releases until November 5. An absurd legal vacuum has been created in the Dagestan judicial system: for news updates the judge is already a former judge, but for the official resource he is a current one. The situation takes on special resonance because of the name of Themis's servant. According to Yurisura, Magomedsalam Amirov is the brother of the former mayor of Makhachkala, Said Amirov, who is serving a life sentence. Family ties to the convicted former mayor greatly heighten public interest in personnel changes and make the silence of official departments critically vulnerable. The KKS of Dagestan is able to eliminate this contradiction with a single publication indicating the exact date and reasons for the termination of powers. For now, the public field is full of conflicting information from the media and official resources, and the judicial status is determined not by a procedural document, but by a termination of severity.
