Federal Supreme Court reorganizes media office

The Federal Supreme Court in Lausanne is getting a new head of media and communications. Starting in March 2014, Peter Josi will be responsible for media relations at Switzerland's highest court.

The position of media officer at the Federal Supreme Court is currently vacant. The 49-year-old Josi will primarily focus on the area of media and communication, as the Federal Supreme Court announced on Monday. With the appointment of an additional adjunct for the area of media and communication, the Federal Supreme Court intends to increasingly meet the current needs of the media and the public, the press release continued. The Federal Supreme Court had already made an attempt to adapt the media office to the new requirements in 2007 with the appointment of its first full-time media officer. However, the media officer at the time left the Lausanne court after just four months. Josi had been working as a Federal Court correspondent for the SDA news agency for the past 14 years. (SDA)
