The authorities of the BiH entity RS have passed an unconstitutional law prohibiting the work of the Court, Prosecutor's Office, and HJPC on the territory of RS and have called on Serb employees from RS to leave these institutions and transfer to work in entity judicial institutions.

The Constitutional Court of BiH has suspended this and other unconstitutional laws, pending a final decision.

Some employees in the HJPC have publicly stated that they will not leave the institutions at Dodik's call, and Dodik, who has been convicted in the first instance, has threatened any court in RS that respects the decisions of the Constitutional Court of BiH with relocation and denial of financial resources.
