[Malborya]

Candidate Name: Anne Gruwez
Home Nation: Malborya
Incumbent: No
Biography: Graduated in 1976 with a degree in law and psychological science, Anne Gruwez knows how to judge. Throughout her career of forty-four years and counting, she has done her job of judging on eleven different courts around Malborya. She has an in-depth history of practising the law as an attorney, before becoming a judge on Malbory in 1985. She played within the 2017 documentary, Ni juge, ni soumise (English: So Help Me God, literally "neither judge nor submissive"). In this unapologetic and politically incorrect portrait, our rare and eccentric judge Gruwez takes viewers behind the scenes of real-life criminal investigations. The stranger-than-fiction documentary makes for a wild and fascinating ride.
