The previous year, the selection process had been delayed, with the DPR Commission III, responsible for legal affairs, encountering issues. However, Abdul Chair Ramadhan, chair of the Judicial Commission, stated that this year's selection process adhered to the guidelines and claimed that no nepotism had occurred. Speaking with Tempo reporters Fajar Pebrianto, Friski Riana, and Amelia Rahima, Abdul Chair expressed confidence in the process's fairness, noting that it followed standard procedures and regulations without any violations.",
