HCJ 2088/10, 4019/10 - HaMoked: Center for the Defence of the Individual et al. v. Commander of West Bank et al. (Partial) Judgment

(Partial) judgment on two petitions submitted by HaMoked and other organizations, against the military procedure permitting Palestinians from the Gaza Strip "to settle" in the West Bank only in exceptional humanitarian cases, and against the forced removal of Palestinians from the West Bank to Gaza based on their out-of-date addresses. The HCJ rejects the petition against the "settlement procedure", but recommends that the military expand the criteria for permitting "settlement" in the West Bank. The HCJ rules that Israel's policy harms Palestinians who are not involved in terrorism, and recommends viewing marriage as justification for "settlement". In the "address petition", the judges issue an order nisi instructing the state to explain why it does not avoid the forced removal to Gaza of Palestinians who are registered in the population registry as living in Gaza, but who moved to the West Bank prior to 2005.
