headed by the attorney general. The ministry consists of the
state's only judicial representative, the attorney general (who may
delegate this representation), and the ministers, fiscal agents,
and other officials who determine the law and establish the
ministry's powers, rights, reasons for dismissal, and replacement
procedures. The attorney general, who serves four years, must meet
the same requirements as the members of the CSJ. The office of the
attorney general of the state is an autonomous organ headed by the
attorney general.
The autonomous office of the comptroller general of the state
