Wed, 07 Sep 2011 00:10:02 +0200 (Reuters) - A Ecuadorean citizen waits for documents in a court in Quito September 6, 2011. Ecuador President Rafael Correa declared a judicial emergency on Monday to ensure legal services at a time when his government is pushing through a controversial restructuring of the courts and judges. Correa's decree will last for 60 days and allow the government to mobilize the judiciary throughout the country to avoid a suspension in services after a reform removed some judges and left courts with less personnel. The sign reads, "24 Civil Court". REUTERS/Guillermo Granja (ECUADOR - Tags: POLITICS BUSINESS EMPLOYMENT CRIME LAW)

Wed, 04 May 2011 06:20:02 +0200 (Reuters) - Ecuadorean students stand in front of posters saying "No" to an upcoming referendum, in Calceta May 3, 2011. Ecuador's President Rafael Correa is likely to win a referendum on May 7, on 10 reforms aimed at shaking up the justice system and limiting media ownership, as well as passing rules banning activities such as bull-fighting and gambling in casinos. The reforms will give Correa and his allies a bigger say in the appointment of Supreme Court judges in the OPEC member nation. His critics say the reforms will give him excessive control over the judiciary. REUTERS/Guillermo Granja (ECUADOR - Tags: POLITICS ELECTIONS EDUCATION)
