The 1992 Constitution sets a minimum of nine justices but no maximum, allowing the President to appoint as many as deemed necessary. Critics call this a loophole for 'court-packing,' where a President floods the bench with loyalists to secure favorable rulings. Proponents of a cap argue it is vital for judicial independence, while opponents argue a larger bench is needed to handle the workload and prevent delays in justice.
