The Judicial Service Commission has started interviewing nine candidates for Constitutional Court positions.
The candidates include President Jacob Zuma's nomination for chief justice, Sandile Ngcobo, and controversial Western Cape High Court Judge President John Hlophe.
The appointment of four new judges will constitute the largest shake-up of the Constitutional Court since its formation in 1994.
