Early career

Humairi worked as a lawyer for several years before being accepted into the Judicial Institute. Following his graduation he was appointed as a Judge by Presidential Decree.[1]

Post-invasion career

Following the 2003 invasion of Iraq Humairi played a role in developing the idea of a mortgage in Iraq's new Civil Code.[1]

He was appointed as the new Head of the Supreme Judicial Council in February 2013, due to a new law forbidding the head of the Federal Supreme Court from also Heading the Supreme Judicial Council. The exact mechanism used for appointing Humairi is unclear.[2] He was later sworn into this role on 2 May 2013.[1]
